[Infovis] CFP: AIMH - Symposium on Visualization and Artificial Intelligence for Medicine, Healthcare, and Social Good

[Cvek, Urska]

** Paper deadline: March 15, 2022 **

You are cordially invited to submit a paper and participate in the newly restructured symposium of the 26th International Conference on Information Visualisation 2022 (https://www.graphicslink.co.uk/IV2022/index.htm) to be held online July 19-22, 2022.

* AIMH - Symposium on Visualization and Artificial Intelligence for Medicine, Healthcare, and Social Good
The long-time standing symposium on BioMedical Visualization (IVBi) is updated for the 2022 year and covers all aspects of visualization and issues affecting large and complex data sets in the realms of medicine, healthcare, and social good. Artificial intelligence in medicine and healthcare is an all-encompassing term employed to describe the use of machine learning, artificial intelligence, and deep-learning and related developments to aid, automate and/or strengthen presentation and comprehension of complex medical diagnosis and healthcare data. Technology for social good aims to improve individual’s lives and their impact on the environment, equality, inclusion, hunger, education, mobility, transport, and human rights. We encourage the submission of papers covering new techniques, old techniques applied in novel ways, new methods, interesting applications, and in-depth surveys.

* Medical and healthcare topics include, but are not limited to:
 - High-performance computing and parallel rendering
 - Signaling pathways, biochemical networks
 - AI & Computer aided diagnosis
 - Visualization of longitudinal health data
 - Operational initiatives support
 - Data-driven drug discovery, digital drug discovery and development
 - Small molecule drug design
 - Health-related event detection in large data collections
 - Fusing, interpretation, and visualization of health and wellness data
 - Multimedia for the self-management of personal health
 - AI & Decision support systems in healthcare
 - Monitoring of health-related daily activities
 - Sensors and IoT for e-health

* Social good topics of interest include but are not limited to:
 - Supporting self-monitoring of personal health
 - Social good for people with special needs
 - HCI for social good
 - Social good for equality and inclusion
 - AI & Machine learning applications for social good
 - Systems and devices for inclusion
 - Systems for patient empowerment
 - Games and multimedia applications for social good

* Examples of visualization topics include, but are not limited to:
 - Interaction with data sets, as well as human factors
 - Data exploration using classical and novel approaches
 - Visualization and databases
 - Linking literature and semantics in pathway visualizations
 - Volume and flow visualization
 - Annotation and labelling
 - Overview and detail presentation of predictive or uncertain data
 - Comparative Methods / User studies / Surveys
 - Identification of correlated and anomalous relationships in disparate data sets

* Conference Proceedings
Papers will appear in the Conference Proceedings after oral presentation, following a peer-review process. Authors must submit papers compliant with the conference Manuscript Templates for Conference Proceedings (IEEE Conference Template) available at: https://www.ieee.org/conferences/publishing/templates.html.
