Submission:
We are looking for research and industry papers related to visual text
analytics with a focus on facilitating human decision making. Papers are
limited to 4 pages. A subset of the accepted papers will be invited for a
15 minute (plus 5 minutes for questions) oral presentation at the workshop.
All other accepted papers will be presented as posters during the poster
