HCI – Human-Computer Interaction & Information Visualization

The HCI / IV symposium aims to provide an international forum for the dissemination and exchange of information on the theoretical and applied areas of human-computer interaction (HCI) and usability within the broader scope of information visualization. The relationship between information visualization and HCI is an increasing phenomenon, including concerns for virtual reality and 3D environments, interaction, navigation, and information visualization interfaces. The Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) and Information Visualization (IV) Symposium seeks original papers related to, but are not limited to, the following thematic areas of research, both theory and practice:

1. IV and Interaction Design / Human-Centered Interface Design
2. AI & HCI – Human, social, dialog/interaction, and technology models – multi-disciplinary collaboration – Prototyping/simulation – User involvement, user research, evaluation, AI assessment, and customisation – Interaction devices: visual, 2D / 3D, virtual and augmented reality, Geo-Spaces, simulations, digital twin, conversational interfaces, multimodal interfaces, brain-computer interfaces
3. Generative UX/UI design – goal-oriented, model training, data acquisition, learning and improvement, and refinement. = Generative UX/UI design frameworks
4. Consumer and industrial application domains – Healthcare & well-being – diagnostics support, treatment suggestions incl. explainability, evidence and confidence, e-healths, personalized healthcare, e-IoT, socially assistive robots = Cultural and art domain: Writing, painting, drawing, composing, arts, computer gaming – Security – monitoring incidents and penetrative testing
5. Ethics of AI-enabled HCI _ biases and fairness, privacy, equity, diversity, Explainable AI, transparency, reliability, trust, and fairness, Metrics and KPIs

HCI / IV papers clearly show an HCI component demonstrated through theory and/or practice related to HCI, human-centered design, usability, and a concern for those principles and practices associated with the general field. Symposium sessions will be scheduled in the following two  formats:

1. Papers:
   1. Theories and models: Knowledge claims, history, or other theory-based issues can be addressed, as well as innovative or provocative HCI issues that reflect a substantial degree of analysis.
   2. Empirical studies: Recent, current, or proposed research studies that show observational (qualitative &/or quantitative) findings, including field studies and ethnography related to interactive systems.
   3. Methodologies, tools, and techniques: New forms of evaluation or processes for assessing interactive systems, including their design, building, and deployment.
   4. Products: Discuss and describe new interactive systems for any range of usage, including their system design, interface, and evaluation.
2. Panel session (90 min.)
   1. Engaging in a series of short talks on a common topic and particular audience. Formats can include all or a portion of the following with any combination of media: roundtable discussions, debates of opposing views, interviews or focus groups, demonstrations, and audience interaction/participation. Proposals for a panel must include a topic, abstract, and persons involved.
