The workshop is held on April 10th 2018, the first day of the symposium. In PacificVAST, participants share their state-of-the-art research results and fresh perspectives on visual analytics. Visual analytics is a discipline concerned with science and technology for analytical reasoning supported by interactive visual interfaces. Most papers presented in PacificVAST are distinguished from traditional visualization papers in that they harmoniously integrate interactive visual interfaces with analytical techniques from statistics, data mining, or machine learning fields to help analyze overwhelming amounts of disparate, conflicting, and dynamic information. All aspects of visual analytics are covered in PacificVAST including, but not limited to the following topics: The science of analytical reasoning - Visually enabled tools to support (collaborative) analytic reasoning about complex and dynamic problems Scalable visual analytic techniques Visual representations and interaction techniques - Theories and techniques of visual representations based on cognitive and perceptual principles that can be deployed through engineered, reusable components - Novel visual paradigms that support the (collaborative) analytical reasoning process - Theories and techniques of user interactions that support the analytical reasoning process Data representations, transformations, and integrations - Theory and practice for transforming data into new scalable representations that faithfully represent the content of the underlying data - Methods to synthesize information of different types and from different sources into a unified data representation - Methods and principles for representing data quality, reliability, and certainty measures throughout the data transformation and analysis process Techniques and systems for production, presentation, and dissemination of analysis results - Methodology and tools that enable the capture of the analytic assessment, decision recommendations, and first responder actions into information packages - Technologies and systems that enable analysts to communicate what they know through the use of appropriate visual metaphor and accepted principles of reasoning and graphic representation - Techniques and tools that enable effective use of limited,mobile forms of technologies to support situation assessment by first responders Methodologies and benchmarks for evaluating visual analytics techniques and systems - Infrastructure to facilitate evaluation of new visual analytics technologies - Ecologically valid evaluation methods for visual analytics tools For fostering a stronger visual analytics community in the Asia-Pacific region, PacificVAST starts a new publishing model this year: ALL accepted papers will be published in a special issue of the Elsevier Journal of Visual Informatics on the day of the workshop.
