Codes assigned to papers from VAST, InfoVis, EuroVis, and IVS.

Original 17 codes:

Data analysis; Decision making; Collaboration; Adoption; Communication, learning, teaching, publishing ; Usability/effectiveness, further split into EXP for user ;experience, and PER for user performance; People's workflow, work practices; Perception and cognition; Algorithm performance; Knowledge discovery; Potential usage; Proposed evaluation methodologies; Visualization-analytical operation; Causal information acquisition ; Evaluation metric development ; Algorithm quality ; Knowledge management;

Two other works also categorize publications in their field according to their evaluation methods:
