The Landscape of Visual Information Communication and Interaction Research: Insights from Analyzing 14 Years of VINCI Conference Proceedings

Published: 20 October 2023 Publication History

Abstract

A large body of work has sought to create effective ways of communicating and interacting with visual information. This paper presents insights into this research landscape based on the proceedings from the International Symposium on Visual Information Communication and Interaction (VINCI). We analyze several aspects of VINCI’s scholarship, including key contributors, emerging topics, and collaboration and citation patterns. Our findings reveal the dynamic character of VINCI and its advancements, highlighting its interdisciplinary nature with contributions from diverse institutions and countries, with the majority of authors engaging in both domestic and international collaborations. The insights from this study can inform future research directions and support more fruitful collaborations among VINCI researchers.
