Pixelization methods associate an information entity with a single pixel so that a set of information entities can be translated to an image. Pixelization has proven to be an effective yet underutilized visualization method and thus needs deep investigation to exploit its potential. GOALS ===== The first Visual Information Expert Workshop explored the basis of a pixelization paradigm. This year we will address these and other issues in visualization. Specifically, the workshop is open to pixelization paradigm and all other 2D Information Visualization methods. TOPICS ====== The workshop encourages submissions on all topics related to pixelization and non-pixelization 2D visualization methods, including (but not limited to) the following: * Mathematics, Discrete Geometry and Statistics * Information sciences: Computer sciences, Data mining, Web sciences, Networks * Physics * Medicine and biology (genomic, proteomic...) * Economics, Management * Psychology, Neuro-Cognitive sciences, Sociology * Engineering * Geography, Demography IMPORTANT DATES =============== * Papers: July 13, 2007 (NEW!) * Notifications: August 17, 2007. * Camera ready copy: September 5, 2007.
