WELCOME
The 11th IEEE Pacific Visualization Symposium (PacificVis 2018) will be held in
Kobe, Japan during April 10 to 13, 2018. Visualization has become an
increasingly important research area due to its wide range of applications in
many disciplines. PacificVis is an IEEE sponsored international visualization
symposium held in the Asia-Pacific region, with the objective to foster greater
exchange between visualization researchers and practitioners, and to draw more
researchers in the Asia-Pacific region to enter this rapidly growing area of
research.
PacificVis is a unified visualization symposium, welcoming all areas of
visualization research such as: information visualization, scientific
visualization, graph and network visualization, visual analytics, and specific
applications such as (but not limited to) security-, software- and
bio-visualization. Authors are invited to submit original and unpublished
research and application papers in all areas of visualization. We encourage
papers in any new, novel, and exciting research area that pertains to
visualization.

CALL FOR PAPERS
Visualization Notes
The 11th IEEE Pacific Visualization Symposium (PacificVis 2018) will be held in
Kobe, Japan during April 10 to 13, 2018. Visualization has become an
increasingly important research area due to its wide range of applications in
many disciplines. PacificVis is an IEEE sponsored international visualization
symposium held in the Asia-Pacific region, with the objective to foster greater
exchange between visualization researchers and practitioners, and to draw more
researchers in the Asia-Pacific region to enter this rapidly growing area of
research.
PacificVis 2018 features a short paper track, called "Visualization Notes." The
purpose of this track is to encourage young researchers to present their work
and discuss with participants including senior researchers there. The
submissions can be late-breaking results and work in progress, while they should
be novel enough to attract interest from the visualization community.
The suggested topics for the "Visualization Notes" are the same as those for
full papers, while the ideas there can be relatively small as compared with
those for full papers. Nonetheless, the "Visualization Notes" are still expected
to contain technically interesting results in theories and/or applications.
Please note that all submissions must be original and thus have not been
published elsewhere. All submitted papers will be peer-reviewed through a
single-stage process by the international program committee. Accepted short
papers will be included in the conference proceedings and in IEEE digital
library.
IMPORTANT DATES

Posters
The 11th IEEE Pacific Visualization Symposium (PacificVis 2018) will be held in
Kobe, Japan during April 10 to 13, 2018. PacificVis 2018 is soliciting high
quality poster proposals. The PacificVis 2018 poster program is welcoming all
areas of visualization research such as: information, scientific, graph,
security, software and bio-visualization. Authors are encouraged to submit work
in progress and practical applications to demonstrate novel and applicable ideas
in all aspects of visualization.
An interactive poster session will be held to allow plenty of opportunities for
one-on-one dialogue and small group discussion in a casual setting. Extended
abstracts of the accepted posters will be included in the electronic conference
proceedings (USB memory stick distributed to conference attendants).
IMPORTANT DATES
----------------------------------- ---------------
Poster papers submission deadline Jan. 19, 2018
Poster papers notification Feb. 7, 2018
Camera ready poster papers due Feb. 21, 2018

English, and follow the formatting guidelines. The posters will be peer-reviewed
in a one-stage single-blind process. Posters will be evaluated by the PacificVis
2018 Poster Co-Chairs based on the level of contribution, validity of the
results, originality, and clarity of presentation. The reviewing will be based
primarily on the abstract content but will consider other supplemental materials
(videos, images, and so on) if provided.
Poster Presentation
Accepted poster will be presented at the poster session of the conference. The
final posters should be printed with no larger than paper size A0 size (841mm x
1189mm / 33.1" x 46.8"). At least one author of an accepted poster must register
for and attend the conference to present the work. Authors will also be required
to present a brief summary of their talk at the fast-forward session.

Visual Data Storytelling Contest
Following the success of the successful 2017 IEEE PacificVis Data Storytelling
Contest, the contest will take place for the second time in 2018. Data
storytelling, narrative visualization, or explanatory visualization has emerged
as an important industry trend, with events such as the Tapestry Conference, the
Information is Beautiful Awards, and the Malofiej Infographics World Summit, as
well as new visual essay publications and blogs such as The Pudding, Explorable
Explanations and Google News Lab's Data Journalism blog. The purpose of this
contest is to encourage students and researchers to demonstrate the value of
their visualization research through effective visual data storytelling, and to
contribute to this exciting development in the broader visualization community.
PacificVis is a unified visualization symposium, welcoming all areas of
visualization such as: information, scientific, graph, security, and software
visualization. Storytellers are invited to submit visual data-driven stories
that draw upon any of these areas. Unlike contests such as the VAST challenge or
the SciVis Contest, the data for the PacificVis visual data storytelling contest
will be left unspecified; storytellers are free to choose any publicly-available
dataset(s). Similarly, the task that storytellers are to accomplish is to
successfully communicate a message or series of messages (i.e., a narrative, a
series of insights) using visualization techniques and supported by the
underlying data. The themes of the story can draw from any topic, including
current affairs, history, natural disasters, and research findings from the
sciences and humanities.

Entries may be submitted by teams or individuals, and from both industry and
academia alike. Conference sponsors can participate non-competitively.
Submissions must fulfill the requirements explained below:
Requirements:
- Submissions can take several forms:
- Website: an author-hosted website is preferred, however authors may opt
to submit a .zip archive of a website containing all dependencies and a
readme .txt or .md file with instructions on how to view the website
locally. Authors submitting a website are also highly encouraged to
submit a .zip archive containing screenshots and/or a video capture of
the website via PCS as a fallback in the event that the contest chairs
and judges are unable to view the website. Authors are encouraged to use
interactive and animated elements that advance the story, such as
scrollytelling waypoints or stepper navigation controls. Websites that
require the viewer to engage in substantial exploratory interaction are
discouraged.
- Video: .mp4, .avi, or .mov formats are preferred, with a maximum length
of 5 minutes. Note that video submissions that appear to be tutorials or
demonstrations of a visualization tool will not be considered; the focus
of the submission must be a visual narrative about the data, not a
visualization tool or technique.
- Data Comic: a multi-page .pdf file that tells a story in the style of a
comic book.
- Infographic: a single-page poster .pdf file that tells a story.
- A succinct story title or headline.
- A 150-word extended abstract using the _IEEE VGTC poster template_ that
briefly describes the data analysis and design process undertaken by the
storyteller(s). The abstract should not include the message(s) communicated
by the story; the story must stand alone in this regard such that a viewer
should not need to read the abstract to understand the story. If submitting
the story as a website, authors must include the URL of the story in this
abstract.
- A list of references that include the publicly-available dataset(s) that
informed the story and those that are visually represented within the story,
as well as any tools, libraries, previously published techniques, or
software applications used during the data analysis and story design
process.
- The story must feature at least one programmatically-generated visual
representation of data; visual representations of data generated by manual
illustration (e.g., on paper, using illustration software) are allowed;
however, these representations must be used in conjunction with a
programmatically-generated visual representations of data. In addition, the
programmatically-generated visual representation(s) should be the authors's
own work, using techniques or tools created by the authors. Third party
techniques or applications may be used in conjunction with the authors's own
work as long as proper credit is given to their respective creators and it
is made clear which aspects of the implementation represent the authors's
own work.
- The entries must be original data-driven stories that have not been
previously published elsewhere.
- For the winning entries we expect the following additional requirements:
- At least one member of the winning team must register for the conference
and be present at the contest's poster session and award ceremony.
Submission Procedure:
The submission deadline is January 19th, 2018 9 PM PST.
- The title, submission file, abstract, and reference list should be submitted
via PCS.
The notification date is February 7th, 2018.
Final Submission: February 21st, 2018 9PM PST.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Awards and Rating
A jury of visualization and data storytelling experts will carefully judge each
submission. Successful entries will effectively communicate a narrative,
message(s), or insight(s) using visual representations of data. Each judge
assigned to a submission will give the submission a score from 1 to 5, and they
will be asked the following questions:
- Is this work relevant for the PacificVis Data Storytelling Contest?
- Is the story original (i.e, not previously published elsewhere)?
- Is the story engaging and interesting?
- Is the narrative point or message of the story clearly discernible? Are
insights clearly communicated?
- Are data sources adequately referenced?
- Are data sources publicly available?
- Does the story feature at least one programmatically-generated visual
representation of data?
- Is it clear which aspects of the story represents the author(s)' own work,
using techniques or tools created by the authors?
- Is proper credit given to the creators of third party techniques or
applications used to generate the story?
Winning entries will receive a certificate.
The jury consists of:
- (To be announced)
