Abstract

2018 has been an important year for the information visualization discipline. This work reviews some of the innovative visualizations developed throughout 2018, organizing them, asd previous proposals published in this Anuario ThinkEPI, into three groups. First, a small selection of visualization with conceptual novelties and new visual proposals are presented. Second, there are some others that have drawn attention to the importance of the data set they have visualized. Finally, some of the technological advances that have been developed within the discipline throughout this year are highlighted.
