Call For Papers - The 9th China Visualization and Visual Analytics Conference (ChinaVis 2022)

The 9th China Visualization and Visual Analytics Conference (ChinaVis 2022) will be held in Xining, China, from July 22 to 25, 2022, hosted by China Society of Image and Graphics, Technical Committee on Visualization and Visual Analysis with multiple sponsorships. ChinaVis 2022 solicits two types of papers: regular papers and survey papers, both written in either Chinese or English.


Regular Papers

CFP Information

Accepted regular papers will be published in the Journal of Visualization for English manuscripts and Journal of Computer-Aided Design & Computer Graphics for Chinese manuscripts.

Regular papers will be reviewed in two rounds. In the first-round review, a paper is conditionally accepted if it is recommended by the reviewers. Authors need to address the issues raised by the reviewers and submit the revised manuscript to the journal submission systems for the second-round review. Papers that meet the revision requirements will be formally accepted. In the past years, the acceptance rate of regular papers was approximately 30%.

For papers with system or technique contributions, authors are recommended to submit additional materials such as a screen-captured video of their system. All submissions must be unpublished original work. If the paper has been reviewed and rejected by other international visualization conferences or journals, the authors can attach past reviews and provide a "Cover Letter" to clarify the improvement of the paper. Each submission will be reviewed anonymously by experts from multiple domains.

The conference uses the Precision Conference System (PCS) system (https://new.precisionconference.com/chinavis) for the first-round review of regular papers. Choose "Regular" paper type in the submission form. Authors are invited to submit the second-round submissions to the Journal of Visualization if the paper is conditionally accepted. Separate submission and formatting guidelines will be sent to authors for the second-round submission.

Manuscripts should be submitted in PDF format. Regular papers in English are required to use the IEEE VGTC conference template (http://www.cs.sfu.ca/~vis/Tasks/camera_tvcg.html) in the first-round review. A regular paper should be no more than 8 pages (not including references). For Chinese papers, refer to the formatting guidelines of Journal of Computer-Aided Design & Computer Graphics requirements (http://www.jcad.cn/).

Survey

Survey Information

Accepted survey papers will be published in the Journal of Visual Informatics for English manuscripts and Journal of Computer-Aided Design & Computer Graphics for Chinese manuscripts.

Survey papers will be reviewed in a three-stage process: initial two-page sketch, first-round, and second-round reviews. First, authors are required to submit an initial sketch, which briefly describes the planned survey by outlining the topic, provides the planned structure and outline of the survey, and lists all key references. The length of a sketch is limited to two pages. Second, selected sketch authors are invited to submit a full survey paper for the first-round review. A survey paper is conditionally accepted if it is recommended by reviewers, and the authors need to revise the manuscript to address the issues raised by the reviewers and resubmit to journal submission systems. The papers that meet the revision requirements will be formally accepted.

All submissions must be unpublished original work. If the paper has been reviewed and rejected by other international visualization conferences or journals, the authors can attach the past reviews and provide a "Cover Letter" to clarify the improvement of the paper. Each submission will be reviewed anonymously by experts from multiple domains.

The conference uses the Precision Conference System (PCS) system (https://new.precisionconference.com/chinavis) for the review of initial sketches and first-round submissions. Choose "Survey" paper type in the submission form. Authors are required to submit the second-round submissions to Visual Informatics or Journal of Computer-Aided Design and Computer Graphics. Separate instructions will be sent to authors if the paper is conditionally accepted by the first-round review.

Survey papers in English are required to use the Visual Informatics template requirements (https://www.elsevier.com/authors/author-schemas/latex-instructions). For Chinese survey papers, refer to the Journal of Computer-Aided Design & Computer Graphics requirements (http://www.jcad.cn/)

Important Dates for Survey Papers
  • Two-page sketch submission deadline (PCS system): April 15, 2022, Beijing time 23:59
  • Notifications to invite full paper submission: April 18, 2022
  • Full paper submission deadline (PCS system): May 15, 2022, Beijing time 23:59
