[DEADLINE EXTENDED] BigVis: Big Data Visual Exploration & Analytics Workshop, EDBT 2021, Cyprus
by Nikos Bikakis 29 Dec '20

29 Dec '20

Due to numerous requests the submission deadline has been extended to **January 18, 2021** --------------------------------------------- Call for Papers BigVis 2021: 4th International Workshop on Big Data Visual Exploration and Analytics https://bigvis.imsi.athenarc.gr/bigvis2021 March 23, 2021, Nicosia, Cyprus Held in conjunction with the 24th Intl. Conference on Extending Database Technology & 24th Intl. Conference on Database Theory (EDBT/ICDT 2021) Information Visualization is nowadays one of the cornerstones of Data Science, turning the abundance of Big Data being produced through modern systems into actionable knowledge. Indeed, the Big Data era has realized the availability of voluminous datasets that are dynamic, noisy and heterogeneous in nature. Transforming a data-curious user into someone who can access and analyze that data is even more burdensome now for a great number of users with little or no support and expertise on the data processing part. Thus, the area of data visualization, visual exploration and analysis has gained great attention recently, calling for joint action from different research areas from the HCI, Computer graphics and Data management and mining communities. In this respect, several traditional problems from these communities such as efficient data storage, querying & indexing for enabling visual analytics, new ways for visual presentation of massive data, efficient interaction and personalization techniques that can fit to different user needs are revisited. The modern exploration and visualization systems should nowadays offer scalable techniques to efficiently handle billion objects datasets, limiting the visual response in a few milliseconds along with mechanisms for information abstraction, sampling and summarization for addressing problems related to visual information over-plotting. Further, they must encourage user comprehension offering customization capabilities to different user-defined exploration scenarios and preferences according to the analysis needs. Overall, the challenge is to offer self-service visual analytics, i.e. enable data scientists and business analysts to visually gain value and insights out of the data as rapidly as possible, minimizing the role of IT-expert in the loop. The BigVis workshop aims at addressing the above challenges and issues by providing a forum for researchers and practitioners to discuss, exchange, and disseminate their work. BigVis attempts to attract attention from the research areas of Data Management & Mining, Information Visualization and Human-Computer Interaction and highlight novel works that bridge together these communities. Workshop Topics ------------------------------------ In the context of visual exploration and analytics, topics of interest include, but are not limited to: - Visualization, exploration & analytics techniques for various data types; e.g., stream, spatial, graph - Human -in -the -loop processing - Human -centered databases - Data modeling, storage, indexing, caching, prefetching & query processing for interactive applications - Interactive & human -centered machine learning - Interactive data mining - User -oriented visualization; e.g., recommendation, assistance, personalization - Visualization & knowledge; e.g., storytelling - Progressive analytics - In -situ visual exploration & analytics - Novel interface & interaction paradigms - Visual representation techniques; e.g., aggregation, sampling, multi -level, filtering - Scalable visual operations; e.g., zooming, panning, linking, brushing - Scientific visualization; e.g., volume visualization - Analytics in the fields of scholarly data, digital libraries, multimedia, scientific data, social data, etc. - Immersive visualization - Interactive computer graphics - Setting -oriented visualization; e.g., display resolution/size, smart phones, visualization over networks - High performance, distributed & parallel techniques - Visualization hardware & acceleration techniques - Linked Data & ontologies visualization - Benchmarks for data visualization & analytics - Case & user studies - Systems & tools Special Theme ************************************************* Machine Learning and Visualization ------------------------------------------------- Submissions ------------------------------------ Regular/Short Research papers [up to 8/4 pages] Work-in-progress papers [up to 4 pages] Vision papers [up to 4 pages] System papers and Demos [up to 4 pages] Special Issue ------------------------------------ Extended versions of the best papers of BigVis 2021 will be invited for submission to a Special Issue of the IEEE Computer Graphics and Applications (CG&A) [pending final decision].

by Axel Soto 22 Dec '20

22 Dec '20

Fourth IUI Workshop on Exploratory Search and Interactive Data Analytics (ESIDA) https://sites.google.com/view/esida2021/home 13 April 2021, Virtual Important Dates (submission deadline extended): Submission deadline: January 6, 2020 (midnight Hawaii time) Acceptance notification: January 31, 2021 Final manuscript due: February 15, 2021 Workshop: April 13, 2021 Workshop Description: This workshop will be part of the ACM Intelligent User Interfaces 2021 Conference (http://iui.acm.org/2021/) The workshop focuses on systems that personalize, summarize and visualize the data for supporting interactive information seeking and information discovery, along with tools that enable user modeling and methods for incorporating the user needs and preferences into both analytics and visualization. Our aim is to bring together researchers and practitioners working on different personalization aspects and applications of exploratory search and interactive data analytics. This will allow us to achieve four goals: (1) propose new strategies for systems that need to convey the rationale behind their decisions or inference, and the sequence of steps that lead to speciﬁc (search) results; (2) develop new user modeling and personalization techniques for exploratory search and interactive data analytics; (3) develop a common set of design principles for this type of systems across platforms, contexts, users and applications; (4) develop a set of evaluation metrics for personalization in exploratory search. The workshop aims to solicit submissions in the following areas of personalized interactive data analytics and exploratory search: Personalized interactive exploration via interactive data analytics: – personalization aspects in systems for exploratory search. – cross-domain/ context-aware/ cross-platform exploratory search systems. – interactively modelling the user’s information needs for high-recall information retrieval. – new applications of exploratory search and interactive data analytics. Data analytics: – interactive interfaces for data-intensive platforms. – interaction degrees of freedom. – preprocessing vs. online processing. – interactive data visualization evaluation of interactive systems for exploratory search and data analytics. Metrics for explainable intelligent systems: – metrics for explainable exploratory search. – explainability and transparency in expert vs. non-expert systems. – human-in-the-loop analytics systems. – efﬁcient vs. explainable analytics. – user perception of explainability and transparency in interactive intelligent systems.
