Our Mission
The International Conference on Information Visualisation-(IV) is a unique platform that brings together academia, industry researchers, and societal agencies. It offers a space to share practical solutions for multidisciplinary applications with societal impacts. Beyond the research forum, it hosts the Doctoral Research Programme for PhD training and a researchers link session for collaborative research project design, providing unparalleled opportunities for learning and collaboration.
The conference theme covers Information Visualization, Visual Analytics, and AI-centred Visual Knowledge Discovery. Its structure adapts to the subject’s evolving and developments. The focus is on applying these fields that have a societal impact, such as Knowledge Visualization, Learning Analytics, and Digital Humanities Knowledge Visualization.
History
IV conference is one of the longest-running conferences on information visualization, which started in 1997 – The first of such events in Europe. IV – past conference proceedings are now available from IEEE Xplore: https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/xpl/conhome/1000370/all-proceedings

Why Attend?
IV is the top academic international conference for discussing Visualisation, Information, knowledge, Visual Analytics, and Knowledge Discovery and enabling underlying technologies, Data Science, machine and deep learning, AI, and generative AI, With applications-focused Knowledge Visualisation and discovery, Big Data, social, and business analytics, Visual Computing, Visualization and Artificial Intelligence for Medicine, Healthcare and Social Good, Built Environment and Built Heritage and Art and humanity.
Delegates from 30+ countries and more than 150+ universities and institutions attend annually.
For our Doctoral Workshop, the researchers will present their research work, receive feedback, and share their experiences with peer groups.
Under the Researcher Links scheme, the IV-forum and hessian.ai will hold a workshop on the central theme of AI/Visualisation for accelerating the 2030 UN Sustainable Development Goals (https://sdgs.un.org/goals). This event is a unique opportunity for researchers to contribute to the UN 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development Goals through state-of-the-art technology. The workshop is being coordinated globally by the researchers and will have contributions from other leading researchers. We are now inviting Career Researchers from around the world to apply to attend this workshop. The workshop aims to design a series of research proposals suitable for funding during the conference. The collaborator will follow up on research development following the workshop. More information from the site: hessian.ai visualization and collaboration forum
