The Playing Telephone paper explores the risks of bias and unverifiable model outputs in AI-generated visualization descriptions for blind and low-vision users, and suggests paths forward for 3 unique audiences.

A few members of the Data Interaction Group (DIG) Lab at Carnegie Mellon University traveled to Vienna for IEEE VIS 2025, the premier forum for advances in theory, methods, and applications of visualization and visual analytics. IEEE is the acronym for the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, and VIS is short for the specialized subject area of Visualization and Visual Analytics. 

Assistant Professor Dominik Moritz and collaborators were recognized with the 10-year impact award for their 2015 paper, Voyager. Learn more here: Voyager Paper Earns InfoVis Test of Time Award.  

PhD student Frank Elavsky co-organized the second workshop on accessible data visualization.

The following VIS 2025 papers feature DIG Lab members as authors.
