SFB-TRR 161 Contributions to IEEE VIS 2026

November 4, 2026; Christina Warren

IEEE VIS 2026 — the visualization community’s premier forum for advances in theory, methods, and applications — takes place in Boston from November 9 to 13. With an acceptance rate of generally only around 25%, submissions to IEEE VIS are very competitive. Thus, we are very proud to be represented at the main conference with two full papers, one short paper, and one poster presentation as well as one SFB-TRR 161 paper in a VIS workshop.

VIS full papers:

• “Structuring Line Ensembles with Path-Integrated Fidelity and Structural Inconsistency Fields”
  Authors: Yumeng Xue (A01), Patrick Paetzold (A01), Bin Chen, Yunhai Wang, Christophe Hurter, Oliver Deussen (A01)
• "Fixation-Related Potentials as Implicit Markers of Task Relevance in Data Visualization”
  Authors: Kathrin Schnizer (C06), Francesco Chiossi (C06), Benedikt Werner, Sven Mayer (C06)

VIS short paper:

• "SpheriColor: Colormaps for Spherical Geospatial Input Topographies” 
  Authors: Julius Rauscher, Johannes Fuchs, Daniel A Keim ( A03), Frederik L. Dennig (A03)

VIS poster:

• “RectEuler over Time: Stable Rectangular Euler Diagrams for Dynamic Sets”
  Authors: Patrick Paetzold (A01), Oliver Deussen (A01)

Workshop paper:

• “Uncertainty-Aware Jacobi Set Computation” (IEEE Workshop on Uncertainty Visualization: How to Make it Interpretable, Integrable, and Accessible?)
  Authors: Daniel Klötzl, Daniel Weiskopf (A01, B01, INF, MGK, Ö)

Wishing everyone a successful time at IEEE VIS 2026!
