EuroVA 2022

Special: call for your questions about Visual Analytics, to be discussed in a special session at EuroVA2022!

Workshop

EuroVA 2022 is the 13th international EuroVis Workshop on Visual Analytics.

It will take place on Monday, June 13, 2022, in Rome, Italy, and is co-located with Eurovis 2022, the Eurographics Conference on Visualization (https://www.eurovis.org/).

Visual Analytics is a problem-solving and sense-making approach that integrates analytical computations, visual representations, and interaction. It includes the analysis of complex (massive, heterogeneous, dynamic, uncertain, …) data and information for gaining understanding, building knowledge, and inferring insight. Visual Analytics aims at a synergistic collaboration of humans and computers mediated through interactive visual interfaces. As such, Visual Analytics is an interdisciplinary field of research, including aspects of visualization, human-computer interaction, data science, statistics and mathematics, data management and knowledge representation, data analysis and machine learning, and cognitive and perceptual sciences.

EuroVA 2022 is the premier workshop in Europe to present and discuss fresh ideas on new methods and theories, novel applications, designs, and studies on the use of Visual Analytics methods and systems. The workshop will accept a wide range of contributions within the broad area of Visual Analytics, including novel techniques, systems, applications, evaluation studies and methods, and theoretical foundations, as well as fresh viewpoints on future challenges and critical reflections.
EuroVA proceedings will be published in the EG Digital Library. From 2020 EuroVA is also indexed in Scopus. Following the workshop, selected authors will be invited to submit an extended version of their paper to a special issue of a journal (Computer & Graphics or similar tier journal). Further details will be announced soon.
