Submission Guidelines and Reviewing Criteria

IEEE VIS expects important, impactful, and potentially transformative contributions. Submissions will be judged on their scientific quality and novelty, potential impact, degree to which the evidence supports the findings, appropriateness of methodology, and the research process followed. After the initial notification of review results, selected papers are only conditionally accepted and will undergo a full revision and review cycle; only papers that improve according to the required changes will be accepted after the second round review.

It is highly recommended to make final submissions screen reader accessible. Please see the VIS Accessibility Guide for instructions.

All paper authors are encouraged to share their accepted paper in an open-access repository in accordance with IEEE copyright regulations. Please see the VIS Open Practices Guidelines for more information.
