Abstract :
The IEEE Visual Analytics Science and Technology (VAST) Conference is now in its tenth year, and its sixth year as an IEEE Conference. It remains the primary venue for the rapidly growing field of visual analytics. Visual analytics is the science of analytical reasoning supported by highly interactive visual interfaces, and seeks to integrate computational analytics with human cognitive processes. Visual analytics requires interdisciplinary science, going beyond traditional visualization to include statistics, mathematics, knowledge representation, management and discovery technologies, cognitive and perceptual sciences, decision sciences, and more.
