CLOSED: Special Issue on Human-AI Interaction for Graphics and Visualization

Important Deadlines:

Submission deadline: 24 May 2025

Publication: November/December 2025

Artificial intelligence (AI) has made significant strides across various fields. However, its end-to-end automation often overlooks the nuances of human needs and expectations, particularly in creative domains like graphics and visualization design. These fields demand human expertise, creativity, and iterative development  – qualities that AI alone cannot replicate. 

To bridge this gap, human-AI interaction (HAI) emerges as a promising paradigm. HAI explores how humans and AI systems communicate and collaborate, leveraging the unique strengths of both to achieve more innovative and impactful outcomes. By combining human ingenuity with AI's computational power, HAI introduces workflows that enable new possibilities for creative designs.

This special issue explores the transformative potential of collaborative HAI in graphics and visualization.  Submissions are encouraged that deepen our understanding of human-AI collaboration and its application in these fields, whether through theoretical frameworks, empirical research, or the development of innovative systems and tools that push the boundaries of HAI.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

• Frameworks for HAI in Graphics and Visualization
• Human-Centric AI Tools for Graphics and Visualization
• Design and Evaluation of HAI in Visual Media
• Data-Driven Dynamic Design Approaches for Visual Media
• Graphical Interfaces and Visualizations for Explainable and Interpretable HAI
• Empirical Studies on HAI in Graphics and Visualization
• Ethical Issues in Collaborative HAI Design for Graphics 
• Integrating AI in Tools for Creative Design and Visualization
• HAI Framework, System, and Tool for VR/AR/XR
• Adaptive AI Techniques for Personalized Graphics and Visualizations
• Modeling User Interaction Behavior in HAI Systems
• Designing HAI Systems for Graphics and Visualization Based on User Behavior Models
• Applications of HAI in Design, Communication, Storytelling, 3D Modeling, Visual Media, Animation, and more
