CALL FOR PAPERS

* Second Workshop on Eye Tracking and Visualization (ETVIS 2016) *

(In conjunction with IEEE VIS 2016, Oct 23th (tentative date), Baltimore, Maryland USA)

*** Paper submission deadline: July 26th, 2015 ***

MOTIVATION AND BACKGROUND OF THE WORKSHOP

There is a growing interest in eye tracking as a research method in many communities, including information visualization, scientific visualization, visual analytics, but also in human-computer interaction, applied perception, psychology, cognitive science, security, and mixed reality. Progress in hardware technology and the reduction of costs for eye tracking devices have made this analysis technique accessible to a large population of researchers. Recording the observer's gaze can reveal how dynamic graphical displays are visually accessed and which information are processed in real time. Nonetheless, standardized practices for technical implementations and data interpretation remain unresolved. With this Workshop on Eye Tracking and Visualization (ETVIS), we intend to build a community of eye tracking researchers within the visualization community, covering information visualization, scientific visualization, and visual analytics. We also aim to establish connections to related fields, in particular, in human-computer interaction, cognitive science, and psychology. This will promote a robust exchange of established practices and innovative use scenarios.

FULL & WORK-IN-PROGRESS SUBMISSIONS

All submissions should be no more than four A4 pages in length (with one page for references). These will be reviewed for presentations as either 20 minutes talks or posters in A0 format.

Submitted papers should be formatted according to TVCG guidelines. Details and guidelines for preparing a proper submission can be found at http://junctionpublishing.org/vgtc/Tasks/camera_tvcg.html.
Submissions should be in pdf format with all fonts embedded in the document.  All tables and figures should be included in the paper.

All accepted submissions will be published as conference proceedings. The best papers will be invited to be extended and considered for a special issue in the Journal of Eye Movement Research, pending a second round of peer-review.

The submitted paper must be anonymous, i.e. papers should not include any information that can identify the authors. Authors' names should be removed from the submission, with "Author" and year used in the bibliography and footnotes, instead of authors' name, paper title, etc. In addition, all identifying information in file properties should be removed.

Each paper will be anonymously reviewed by at least three reviewers.  The program committee will consider the following criteria when evaluating submitted papers: originality of contribution, relevance to the conference, technical/scientific merit, and presentation and clarity.

LIST OF TOPICS

This workshop will cover topics that are related to visualization research (including information visualization, scientific visualization, and visual analytics) and eye tracking.

Aspects discussed in this workshop include the following topics with an emphasis on the relationship between eye tracking and visualization:

• Visualization and visual analytics techniques for eye-movement data (including spatio-temporal visualization, evolution of gaze patterns, visual analysis of participant behavior, visualization of static and dynamic stimuli, 2D vs. 3D representations of eye movement data)
• Visual gaze and eye-movement data-analysis, including visual data mining, aggregation, clustering techniques, and metrics for eye movement data
• Eye-movement data provenance,big eye-movement data
• Standardized metrics for evaluating interactions with visualization
• Novel methods for eye-tracking in challenging visualization scenarios
• Uncertainty visualization of gaze data
• Interactive annotation of gaze and stimulus data
• Systems for the visual exploration of eye-movement data
• Reports of eye-tracking studies that evaluate visualization or visual analytics
• Eye-tracking in non-WIMP visualization environments, including mobile eye-tracking, mobile devices, virtual environments, mixed reality, and large displays
• Eye-tracking-based interaction techniques for visualization
• Interpreting eye-movement scanpaths from the perspective of
human cognitive architecture and perceptual motor expertise
• Cognitive models for inferring user states from gaze behavior with visualizations
• Applications that rely on eye-tracking as an adaptive input parameter

IMPORTANT DATES

* Paper submission deadline: 20-July-2015
