Cognitive modeling, approximation of human cognitive functions in a computational system, is a traditional methodologyin the field of cognitive science. Usually this methodology has been used as a tool for scientific understanding of humanmind, and evaluated by fitting to human data. In this presentation, the author proposes a framework of interactive cognitivemodeling as an application of the above methodology for understanding and supporting individual human cognition. Theframework consists of cognitive architecture, visualization of the model behavior, knowledge database of personal userand sensing devices to include the users reaction. This presentation shows two systems of interactive cognitive modelingin the field of web browsing and photo browsing.
