AI Agents and the Future of VIS

Aug 14, 2026

This project addresses the interaction adaptability challenges arising from autonomous AI agents reshaping visualization paradigms by systematically investigating the deep integration of agents and visualization. Through a hybrid format combining keynotes, paper discussions, and the inaugural Agentic VIS Challenge, it establishes a human-agent collaborative framework and a practical validation platform. By convening domain researchers to explore agent integration strategies, this initiative not only delineates new research directions for visualization in the agentic era but also provides theoretical foundations and innovative benchmarks for next-generation human-AI collaborative visualization. Ultimately, this work facilitates the field’s adaptation to intelligent transformations, offering critical insights into the coexistence and synergy between autonomous agents and visual analytics systems.

Not Always Top-Left: Untangling the Signals that Guide Dashboard Reading Order

Aug 07, 2026

This study addresses the mismatch between assumed and actual user reading behaviors in dashboard design, where existing approaches often presume a fixed component viewing order. Through a mixed-methods investigation involving 18 designers and 16 users, the work systematically identifies and quantifies six key factors influencing interaction sequences: layout, visual salience, semantics, functional role, interactivity, and user context. Integrating interviews, behavioral logs, and sequential analysis, the research uncovers both consistent patterns and diverse strategies in how users navigate dashboards, revealing representative navigation pathways. These findings provide an empirical foundation and actionable design insights for computational modeling of dashboard comprehension and the development of intelligent guidance systems that adapt to real user behavior.
