In the past years, experts in visualization, human-computer interaction and related fields have substantially contributed to the topic, for instance, by the development of visualization approaches to open the typically closed black box design of popular machine learning methods. However, the rapid developments in AI/ML potentially trigger a fundamental change in our understanding of the capabilities and applicability of the models as they are now also able to “interact” with the general population. What are the implications in terms of trust into the analytical results and potential biases that may occur? How should visualization research react and adapt to increase trust and call our attention to critical biases to avoid them?
The purpose of the focus period is to discuss the aforementioned topic in depth and over a longer period of time. The focus period will run at Linköping University, Campus Norrköping between April 28 and May 30, 2025. A number of international scholars interested in these research challenges will be invited to participate, and to interact with leading scientists as well as ELLIIT researchers.
In the third week of the focus period (May 13-15) we will have a 3-day symposium in the city of Norrköping close to our beautiful Campus Norrköping with several invited top-level researchers.
