TY - CONF T1 - BELIV'08: Beyond time and errors: novel evaluation methods for information visualization T2 - CHI '08 extended abstracts on Human factors in computing systems Y1 - 2008 A1 - Bertini,Enrico A1 - Perer,Adam A1 - Plaisant, Catherine A1 - Santucci,Giuseppe KW - Evaluation KW - Information Visualization AB - Information visualization systems allow users to produce insights, innovations and discoveries. Evaluating such tools is a challenging task and the goal of BELIV'08 is to make a step ahead in the comprehension of such a complex activity. Current evaluation methods exhibit noticeable limitations and researchers in the area experiment some frustration with evaluation processes that are time consuming and too often leading to unsatisfactory results. The most used evaluation metrics such as task time completion and number of errors appear insufficient to quantify the quality of an information visualization system; thus the name of the workshop: "beyond time and errors".
