The course is organized as a classic seminar. At the beginning, some introductory lectures on
Information Visualization and Visual Analytics will be given by the teacher. Then, each

research papers and articles. Each presentation should take around 45 minutes + 15 minutes
of discussion. Finally, each student will write an overview article (about 15-20 pages)
