Editorial

Message from the Editors-in-Chief It is our great pleasure to announce the launch of a new journal, Visual Informatics, which will publish original articles and survey papers on theories and algorithms for visual information modeling, synthesis and processing. Visual information is the major channel for human and machines to perceive the surrounding world, whereas images, videos, graphics and animations are the most popular visual media. Besides real-time generation and transmission of visual information, efficient acquisition and perception of the features and semantics behind visual information have long been the grand challenges of multiple areas in computer science. Visual Informatics is a peer-reviewed, online journal, which focuses on the development and application of theories, algorithms and technologies associated with visual data acquisition, analysis, synthesis, perception, enhancement and applications. Suggested topics include, but are not limited to: visual data acquisition and modeling, visualization and visual analysis, expressive rendering, augmented reality, natural user interface based on visual

perception. The journal will be published quarterly. It accepts surveys, original research articles, invited papers and high-quality papers recommended by related conferences. Every article that appears in this journal will support open access, to ensure that the article is universally and freely accessible via the Internet in an easily readable format immediately after publication. We will try to set up a good platform to serve for potential authors as well as readers for prompt publication of the latest progress in this field. We look forward to your kind participation in and contribution to this new journal! Editors-in-chief Hans-Peter Seidel Kun Zhou Available online xxxx
