[CfP] 3rd Workshop on Visual Process Analytics (VIPRA 2026) - Co-Located EuroVis 2026
by Elzen, Stef van den 12 Feb '26

12 Feb '26

##################################################### 3rd Workshop on Visual Process Analytics (VIPRA 2026) https://vipra-workshop.github.io/homepage/ ##################################################### Call for Papers ---------------- The 2026 Workshop on Visual Process Analytics (Vipra 2026) is the 3rd annual workshop that provides an opportunity for participants to discuss state-of-the-art event visualization and process mining and learn how both techniques can mutually benefit each other. In this workshop we aim to bring together researchers from both Visual Analytics and Process Mining, to learn, create a common language, spark collaborations, and advance both fields. Process Mining is a data-driven discipline that focuses on extracting valuable insights and knowledge from the vast amount of event data generated within organizations. It involves the discovery, analysis, and improvement of process models by leveraging techniques from data science, machine learning, and data analytics. By examining event logs and historical data, process mining aims to provide a clear, objective view of how processes actually operate, identifying bottlenecks, deviations, and opportunities for optimization. In turn, this supports organizations in making more data-informed decisions, and enhance operational efficiency. Visual analytics is an interdisciplinary field that combines data visualization, analytical techniques, and interactive interfaces to help people make sense of complex and often large datasets. It focuses on using the power of visual representations to facilitate data exploration, pattern recognition, and decision-making. By enabling users to interact with data through graphical interfaces, visual analytics promotes a deeper understanding of information, uncovers hidden insights, and supports the detection of trends, anomalies, and relationships that might be challenging to discern through traditional data analysis methods alone. We believe that process mining and visual analytics can mutually benefit each other. Until now, there has been limited interaction between the two fields, despite their shared objectives. In process mining, the emphasis has traditionally been on data extraction and process discovery, often neglecting the visualization aspect, whereas in visual analytics, event visualization efforts have often overlooked the wealth of process mining techniques that can enhance visualizations and analysis. Bridging this gap and fostering collaboration between the two fields will not only lead to more informed, efficient, and data-driven improvements in various domains but also advance the research and innovation in both process mining and visual analytics, ultimately contributing to a more holistic and integrated approach to understanding and optimizing complex processes. Topics and Scope ---------------- We encourage submissions from all areas on the intersection of visual analytics and process mining. The 2026 Workshop on Visual Process Analytics will cover a range of topics exploring the intersection of PM and VA including (but not limited to): - VA to support exploration and comparison of discovered process models - VA to support the comparison of event logs and process models, e.g., in conformance checking - VA to support the generation of hypotheses about the business process and the identification of process improvement ideas - VA to represent temporal and spatial uncertainty in PM models - Research challenges, pitfalls, and opportunities related to the intersection of VA and PM - The role of AI in PM, and how Visualization and explainable-AI solutions can support model comprehension, exploration, and refinement - Research on the use of VA in BPM and PM practice (user studies, task taxonomies, etc.) Paper Submission, Publication, and Format Guidelines -------------------------------------- We will accept short papers with up to 5 pages plus one page of references (5+1). We encourage a diverse range of submissions and topics in any of the paper types listed below: - Application/Case-study papers (format: 5 + 1) - Research papers (format: 5 + 1) - Position papers and system demos papers (format: 2 + 1) All material will be submitted via the Precision Conference System (PCS): https://new.precisionconference.com/submissions For all submissions, please use the EuroVis 2026 LateX2e Style.

CFP: ETVIS 2026 - 10th Workshop on Eye Tracking and Visualization
by Maurice Koch 27 Jan '26

27 Jan '26

Dear colleagues, You are invited to submit relevant manuscripts for consideration in the * Tenth Workshop on Eye Tracking and Visualization (ETVIS 2026) * June 1st - June 4th, 2026, Marrakech - Morocco in conjunction with the Symposium on Eye Tracking Research and Applications (ETRA): https://etra.acm.org/2026/ All accepted papers will be published by ACM as part of the ETRA 2026 Workshop Proceedings (in ACM DL). The details are appended and also available at https://www.etvis-workshop.org/etvis-2026. Please feel free to contact us directly for any further enquiry. Best regards, Kuno Kurzhals (University of Stuttgart, Germany) Michael Burch (University of Applied Sciences, Chur, Switzerland) ************************************************************************** Tenth Workshop on Eye Tracking and Visualization (ETVIS 2026) June 1st - June 4th, 2026, Marrakech - Morocco in conjunction with ACM ETRA 2026 https://etra.acm.org/2026/ ************************************************************************** Contact: etvis.workshop(a)gmail.com ************************************************************************** _________________________________________ IMPORTANT DATES (deadlines updated!) (AoE - Anywhere on Earth) _________________________________________ ● Submission Due: Mar 02, 2026 ● Notification: Mar 23, 2026 ● Camera Ready: Mar 30, 2026 All accepted papers will be published by ACM. _____________________________________ ACM's TRANSITION TO FULL OPEN ACCESS _____________________________________ ** Important update on ACM's new open access publishing model for 2026 ACM Conferences ** Starting January 1, 2026, ACM will fully transition to Open Access. All ACM publications, including those from ACM-sponsored conferences, will be 100% Open Access. Authors will have two primary options for publishing Open Access articles with ACM: the ACM Open institutional model or by paying Article Processing Charges (APCs). With over 2,600 institutions already part of ACM Open, the majority of ACM-sponsored conference papers will not require APCs from authors or conferences (currently, around 76%). Authors from institutions not participating in ACM Open will need to pay an APC to publish their papers, unless they qualify for a financial waiver. To find out whether an APC applies to your article, please consult the list of participating institutions in ACM Open and review https://www.acm.org/publications/policies/policy-on-discretionary-open-acce…. Keep in mind that waivers are rare and are granted based on specific criteria set by ACM. Understanding that this change could present financial challenges, ACM has approved a temporary subsidy for 2026 to ease the transition and allow more time for institutions to join ACM Open. The subsidy will offer: ● $250 APC for ACM/SIG members ● $350 for non-members This represents a 65% discount, funded directly by ACM. Authors are encouraged to help advocate for their institutions to join ACM Open during this transition period. This temporary subsidized pricing will apply to all conferences scheduled for 2026. ______ SCOPE ______ Broadly, this workshop considers the intersection of eye tracking research with visualization, whether the contributions relate to eye tracking studies of visualizations, or vice versa, visualization techniques for eye tracking. Technological advances in computer vision algorithms and sensor hardware have greatly reduced the implementational and financial costs of eye tracking. Thus, it is unsurprising to witness a significant increase in its use as a research tool in fields beyond the traditional domains of biological vision, psychology, and neuroscience, in particular, in visualization and human-computer interaction research. One of the key challenges lies in the analysis, interaction, and visualization of complex spatio-temporal datasets of gaze behavior, which is further complicated by complementary datasets such as semantic labels, user interactions and/or accompanying physiological sensor recordings. Ultimately, the research objective is to allow eye tracking data to be effectively interpreted in terms of the observer’s decision-making and cognitive processes. To achieve this, it is necessary to draw upon our current understanding of gaze-behavior across various and related fields, from vision and cognition to visualization. Altogether, eye tracking is an important field to be understood, be it in the sense of data analysis and visualization, interaction, or user-based evaluation of visualization. _______ TOPICS _______ Manuscripts are solicited on the following topics with an emphasis on the relationship between eye tracking and visualization, including but not limited to the following: • Visualization and visual analytics techniques for eye movement data • Eye movement data analysis, visual data mining, aggregation, clustering, and metrics for eye movement data • Eye movement data provenance, big eye movement data • Uncertainty visualization of gaze data • Standardized metrics for evaluating interactions with visualization • Novel methods for eye-tracking in challenging visualization scenarios • Interactive annotation of gaze and stimulus data • Systems for visual exploration of eye movement data • Reports of eye tracking studies evaluating visualization or visual analytics • Eye tracking in non-WIMP visualization environments, including mobile eye tracking, mobile devices, virtual environments, mixed reality, and large displays • Eye tracking-based interaction techniques for visualization • Interpreting eye movement scanpaths from the perspective of human cognitive architecture and perceptuo-motor expertise • Perception in eye tracking studies • Evaluation of cartographic and other spatial visualizations with eye tracking • Inferences that can be drawn from gaze behavior • Cognitive models for inferring user states from gaze behavior with visualizations • Applications that rely on eye-tracking as an adaptive input parameter • Explainable artificial intelligence (XAI) with a focus on eye tracking NEW THIS YEAR: • Position/road map papers for ETVIS related topics ____________ SUBMISSIONS ____________ Authors are invited to submit original work complying with the ETRA SHORT PAPER format (up to 8 pages in single-column format, any number of references, max. 150 words abstract). ETVIS uses the Precision Conference System (PCS) through ETRA 2026 to handle the submission and reviewing process. Also, ensure that the Author Guidelines (https://www.siggraph.org/learn/instructions-authors for SIG sponsored events [sigconf]) are met prior to submission. Please read and follow the ACM Policy on Authorship (https://www.acm.org/publications/policies/new-acm-policy-on-authorship) regarding the use of Generative AI tools and technologies in ACM published Work. NEW THIS YEAR: We will allow authors to submit position/road map papers about ETVIS related topics. In contrast to the regular research papers, this type should foster discussion and envision potential future directions for the research in our field. We include an additional category of paper submissions: position/road map papers about ETVIS related topics. _________ ORGANIZERS _________ ● Kuno Kurzhals, University of Stuttgart, Germany, Kuno.Kurzhals(a)visus.uni-stuttgart.de ● Michael Burch, University of Applied Sciences, Chur, Switzerland, michael.burch(a)fhgr.ch ____________ PAPER CHAIRS ____________ ● Jacob Miller, Technical University of Munich, Germany, jacob.miller(a)tum.de ● Stanislav Popelka, Palacký University Olomouc, Czech Republic, standa.popelka(a)gmail.com ● Günter Wallner, Johannes Kepler University Linz, Austria, guenter.wallner(a)jku.at __________________ STEERING COMMITTEE __________________ ● Michael Burch, University of Applied Sciences, Chur, Switzerland, michael.burch(a)fhgr.ch ● Lewis Chuang, Chemnitz University of Technology, Germany, lewis.chuang(a)phil.tu-chemnitz.de ● Daniel Weiskopf, University of Stuttgart, Germany, Daniel.Weiskopf(a)visus.uni-stuttgart.de ______________ WEBSITE CHAIR ______________ Maurice Koch, University of Stuttgart, Germany, Maurice.Koch(a)visus.uni-stuttgart.de

To determine whether or not an APC will be applicable to your article, please follow the detailed guidance here: https://www.acm.org/publications/icps/author-guidance.
