2005-07-12: Recent article about the "Top 10 Unsolved Information Visualization Problems"

In the curent issue of the IEEE Computer Graphics and Applications Journal, Chaomei Chen points out the Top 10 Unsolved Information Visualization Problems [Chen, 2005]. http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/xpls/abs_all.jsp?isnumber=31454&arnumber=1463074&count=14&index=3

The article itself is a revised and extended version of the top unresolved problems pointed out at a panel discussion at IEEE Visualization 2004 conference.

The Top 10 Unresolved Problems identified by C. Chen are:

1. Usability
2. Understanding elementary perceptual–cognitive tasks
3. Prior knowledge
4. Education and training
5. Intrinsic quality measures
6. Scalability
7. Aesthetics
8. Paradigm shift from structures to dynamics
9. Causality, visual inference, and predictions
10. Knowledge domain visualization
