Recruiting real users for your #lab-based experiments for #DigitalLibrary #HCI research is a real drag, isn't it? Lean into an #LLM agent instead!

"[Our agent] generates realistic user profiles and dynamic #search sessions that closely mimic actual search strategies, including #querying, clicking, and stopping behaviors [...] accuracy in replicating real user interactions has been validated through comparisons with real user data."

Generative Agents Navigating Digital Libraries

In the rapidly evolving field of digital libraries, the development of large language models (LLMs) has opened up new possibilities for simulating user behavior. This innovation addresses the longstanding challenge in digital library research: the scarcity of publicly available datasets on user search patterns due to privacy concerns. In this context, we introduce Agent4DL, a user search behavior simulator specifically designed for digital library environments. Agent4DL generates realistic user profiles and dynamic search sessions that closely mimic actual search strategies, including querying, clicking, and stopping behaviors tailored to specific user profiles. Our simulator's accuracy in replicating real user interactions has been validated through comparisons with real user data. Notably, Agent4DL demonstrates competitive performance compared to existing user search simulators such as SimIIR 2.0, particularly in its ability to generate more diverse and context-aware user behaviors.
