Submission deadline: *Fri, July 17, 2020, 5:00 pm PDT*. VDS 2020 solicits original work that emphasizes the role, application, and impact of visualization in data science. VDS accepts archival full paper submissions for talks and selected papers will appear in an impactful journal (e.g. IEEE TVCG, IEEE Big Data, etc). For details, visit http://www.visualdatascience.org/2020/index.html <http://www.visualdatascience.org/2020/index.html> Contact: vds@ieeevis.org --------------------------------------------------------VDS 2020 Transformations in many fields are enabled by rapid advances in our ability to acquire and generate data. The bottleneck to discovery is now our ability to analyze and make sense of heterogeneous, noisy, streaming, and often massive datasets. Extracting knowledge or insights from this abundance of data lies at the heart of 21st-century discovery, which can be used to inform decisions, coordinate activities, optimize processes, improve products and services, as well as enhance productivity and innovation across a wide range of business and scientific problems. Data science is the practice of deriving insights from data, enabled by statistical modeling, computational methods, interactive visual analysis, and domain-driven problem solving. Data science draws from methodologies developed in such fields as applied mathematics, statistics, machine learning, data management, visualization, and HCI. It drives discoveries in business, economy, biology, medicine, environmental science, the physical sciences, the humanities, and social sciences, and beyond. Visualization is an integral part of data science, and essential to enable a sophisticated analysis of data. After four highly successful events, the sixth Symposium on Visualization in Data Science (VDS) will again be held on Monday, October 26th at IEEE VIS 2020 <http://ieeevis.org/year/2020/welcome>. VDS will bring together domain scientists and methods researchers (including visualization, usability and HCI, data management, statistics, machine learning, and software engineering) to discuss common interests, talk about practical issues, and identify open research problems in visualization in data science. Call for ParticipationWe encourage you to submit original work that emphasizes the role, application, and impact of visualization in data science. The workshop accepts archival full paper submissions for talks. Full Papers Paper submissions should describe the role, application, and impact of visualization in data science. We would like to particularly encourage papers that cross disciplinary boundaries and show how visualization in data science can be a catalyst for discovery. Papers will be published in our symposium proceedings and published in the IEEE Digital Library. We consider papers as work in progress and encourage authors to publish an improved version of the paper in a journal or at another venue at a later time. In addition, we plan to publish extended versions of selected papers in a special issue of IEEE TVCG. Papers that integrate visualization with any stages of the data science pipeline (collecting data, cleaning data, exploring data, and communicating data) would be welcome as submissions to VDS. Review Process (Single blind or Double blind) Paper submissions will be managed by the Program Chairs and sent to the Program Committee to evaluate the work’s novelty and significance. You have the option to have your work reviewed via a double-blind process; to do this, simply be sure to exclude all identifying information in the submitted manuscript file, ensuring that the reviewers will not know the identity of the authors. Otherwise, the review process will be single-blind, i.e., the reviewers will know the identity of the authors, but the authors will not know the identity of the reviewers. Paper Submission and Formatting Guidelines (8 pages max excluding references) Submissions should be no more than 8 pages long excluding references and formatted according to the VGTC formatting guidelines <http://junctionpublishing.org/vgtc/Tasks/camera.html>. To submit a paper please use the Precision Conference System <https://new.precisionconference.com/submissions>. After logging in go to “new submissions” and select “Submit to Papers” for VDS 2020.
