Inspirer, explorer: Magellan, un environnement interactif evolutionnaire pour la génération d'exemples

We propose Magellan an interactive evolutionary environment to semi-automatically generate examples galleries suited to the problem under study. We report a qualitative evaluation of Magellan for designing an Instant Messenger UI.
