abstract = {In today's world, which has recently seen fractures and isolation forming among states, internationaland interdisciplinary collaboration is an increasingly important source of progress. Collaboration isa rich source of innovation and growth. It is the goal of the Collaborative European ResearchConference (CERC2020) to foster collaboration among friends and colleagues across disciplinesand nations within Europe. CERC emerged from long-standing cooperation between the CorkInstitute of Technology, Ireland and Hochschule Darmstadt - University of Applied Sciences,Germany. CERC has grown to include more well-established partners in Germany, the UnitedKingdom, Greece, Spain, Italy, and many more.
CERC is truly interdisciplinary, bringing together new and experienced researchers from science,engineering, business, humanities, and the arts. At CERC researchers not only present their findingsas published in their research papers. They are also challenged to collaboratively work out jointaspects of their research during conference sessions and informal social events and gatherings.
Organizing such an event involves the hard work of many people. COVID-19 pandemic hasimpacted our daily life and research. It has been a significant change to CERC2020 and this is thefirst time the conference was held virtually online. The conference has received submissions fromworldwide, not just European countries. Thanks go to the international program committee and myfellow program chairs, particularly to Prof Udo Bleimann for invaluable support throughout theconference. Prof Ingo Stengel, Dr. Haiying Wang, Dr. Ali Haithem, and Dr. Stefanie Regier forsupporting me in the review process. Dirk Burkhardt and Dr. Robert Loew put a great effort intosetting up the website and conference management system and preparing the conference programmeand proceedings. Thank my colleagues from Ulster University, Hochschule Karlsruhe andHochschule Darmstadt, and the Cork Institute of Technology, Ireland for providing invaluablesupport to the conference. CERC2020 has received supports from Ulster University, VIsit Belfast,and Belfast City Council.},

abstract = {In the current information era, most aspects of life depend on and are driven by data, information, knowledge, user experience, and cultural influences. The infrastructure of any information-dependent society relies on the quality of data, information and analysis of such entities for short to long term as well as past and future activities. Information Visualisation, Analytics, Machine Learning, Artificial Intelligence and Application domains are just a few of the current state of the art developments that effectively enhance understanding of these driving forces. Several key interdependent variables are emerging that are becoming the focus of scientific activities, such as Information and Data Science, an aspect that tightly couples raw data (origin, autonomous capture, classification, incompleteness, impurity, filtering) and data scale to knowledge acquisition such that its dependencies on the domain of application and its evolution steer the next generation of research activities. Processing the relationship between these phases, from the raw data to knowledge, has added new impetus to the way these are understood and communicated. The tradition of use and communication by visualisation is deep-rooted. It helps us investigate new meanings for the humanities, history of art, design, human factors, and user experience and leads to discoveries and hypothesis analysis. Modern-day computer-aided analytics and visualisation have added momentum in developing tools that exploit 2D and 3D metaphor-driven techniques within many applied domains. The techniques are developed beyond visualisation to simplify the complexities, to reveal ambiguity, and to work with incompleteness. The next phase of this evolving field is to understand uncertainty, risk analysis, and tapping into unknowns; how this uncertainty is built into the processes that exist in all stages of the process, from raw data to the knowledge acquisition stage.
This collection of papers on this year's information visualisation forum, compiled for the 24th conference on the Information Visualization – incorporating Artificial Intelligence – analytics, machine- & deeplearning - Biomedical Visualization, Learning Analytics & Geometric Modelling and Imaging - IV2020, advocates that a new conceptual framework will emerge from information-rich disciplines like the Humanities, Psychology, Sociology, Business of everyday activities as well as the science-rich disciplines. To facilitate this, IV2020 provides the opportunity to resonate with many international and collaborative research projects as well as lectures from distinguished speakers that channels the way this new framework conceptually, as well as practically has been realised. This year's theme is enhanced further by AI, Social Networks impact on social, cultural and heritage aspect of life and learning analysis of today's multifaceted and data-rich environment.
Joining us in this search are some 100 plus researchers who reflect and share a chapter of their thoughts with fellow researchers. The papers collected, peer-reviewed by the international reviewing committee, reflect the vibrant state of information visualisation, analytics, applications, and results of the work of researchers, artists and professionals from more than 25 countries. It has allowed us to address the scope of visualisation from a much broader perspective. Each contributor to this conference has indeed added fresh perspectives and thoughts, challenges our beliefs and encouraged further our adventure of innovation.},
