Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The visual analytics methodology emerged historically as the potential answer to the needs of researchers and practitioners who found that computational data analysis methods (e.g., originating in the fields of statistics or AI), interactive visualization methods, or more traditional sensemaking approaches were not sufficient on their own for challenging real-world data analyses. Visual analytics lies at the intersection of these methods and aims to tightly integrate domain knowledge in the analysis process by actively including the human data analyst.
This Special Issue invites article submissions within the broader field of visual analytics, including research papers presenting novel approaches, systems, techniques, evaluation studies and theoretical methodologies, application papers presenting design studies and successful uses of VA in practice, and survey papers giving state-of-the-art overviews of the field.
Topics of interest include (but are not limited to):
- Theory and design spaces;
- Methodological/theoretical foundations;
- Novel techniques for visual representation, interaction, or other steps of visual analytic workflows;
- Empirical studies in VA;
- Human-computer interaction;
- Human-centered VA and human factors;
- Progressive visual analytics;
- Human-centered ML/AI;
- Explainable AI;
- Visual data science;
- Visual data mining;
- Decision making through VA;
- Immersive analytics;
- Applications, design studies, and problem-driven work.
