Workshop on VisGen: Exploring Generative AI for Visual Data Science
In the era of Future AI-Powered Visual Informatics, Generative AI (GenAI) is transforming the landscape of how visual data is understood, manipulated, and utilized across disciplines. As images, videos, and complex visual signals become central to decision-making in sectors like healthcare, urban planning, and creative industries, it is crucial to understand the fundamentals and evolving trends of GenAI that enable such intelligent visual processing. From text-toimage generation to context-aware augmentation, GenAI models like Stable Diffusion and DALL·E are not just tools they are becoming creative collaborators and analytical engines. This workshop provides a gateway to explore real-world use cases where generative models enhance image quality, synthesize training data, and create visual narratives. Participants will gain hands-on experience with powerful platforms such as RunwayML, GPT Vision, and Pythonbased Collab notebooks, enabling them to move beyond theory into applied visual data science. Most importantly, attendees will learn how to embed these capabilities into visual analytics pipelines, supporting scalable, data-driven research and innovation. As AI reshapes visual informatics, mastering GenAI is essential to building future-ready solutions that are not only intelligent but also interpretable, inclusive, and impactful.
