IEEE Computer Graphics and Applications (CG&A) bridges the theory and practice of computer graphics topics, including modeling, rendering, animation, (data) visualization, HCI/user interfaces, novel applications, hardware architectures, haptics, and virtual- and augmented-reality systems.

From specific algorithms to full system implementations, CG&A offers a unique combination of peer-reviewed feature articles and informal departments. Theme issues guest edited by leading researchers in their fields track the latest developments and trends in computer-generated graphical content, while tutorials and surveys provide a broad overview of interesting and timely topics. Regular departments further explore the core areas of graphics as well as extend into topics such as usability, education, history, and opinion. Each issue, the story of our cover focuses on creative applications of the technology by an artist or designer. Published six times a year, CG&A is indispensable reading for people working at the leading edge of computer-generated graphics technology and its applications in everything from business to the arts.

CG&A is the oldest and still the only publication with such a breath of topics and its mix of opinion pieces and peer-reviewed research articles. We pride ourselves on both our high impact factor and fast turnaround time for submitted content.

Special Issue on Human-AI Interaction for Graphics and Visualization
Día de Entrega: 2025-04-24

Artificial intelligence (AI) has made significant strides across various fields. However, its end-to-end automation often overlooks the nuances of human needs and expectations, particularly in creative domains like graphics and visualization design. These fields demand human expertise, creativity, and iterative development  – qualities that AI alone cannot replicate. 

To bridge this gap, human-AI interaction (HAI) emerges as a promising paradigm. HAI explores how humans and AI systems communicate and collaborate, leveraging the unique strengths of both to achieve more innovative and impactful outcomes. By combining human ingenuity with AI’s computational power, HAI introduces workflows that enable new possibilities for creative designs.

This special issue explores the transformative potential of collaborative HAI in graphics and visualization.  Submissions are encouraged that deepen our understanding of human-AI collaboration and its application in these fields, whether through theoretical frameworks, empirical research, or the development of innovative systems and tools that push the boundaries of HAI.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

    Frameworks for HAI in Graphics and Visualization
    Human-Centric AI Tools for Graphics and Visualization
    Design and Evaluation of HAI in Visual Media
