Khoury College at IEEE VIS 2021
Known as the premier forum for advances in visualization and visual analytics, the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) will host VIS 2021 virtually, from October 24–29, 2021. Academic, government, and industry researchers and practitioners from all over the world will gather to share and present novel findings on the design and use of visualization tools.
Khoury College of Computer Sciences researchers will have a large presence at IEEE VIS 2021. Members of the Data Visualization Lab and other faculty at Khoury College submitted nine papers and will host four workshops and one tutorial. All full papers are cross-published in the IEEE Transactions on Visualization and Computer Graphics (TVCG) journal.
