Context-aware Adaptive Visualizations for Critical Decision Making

User interface adaptations for Information Visualisation have yet to unlock their potential in critical decision-making scenarios, like emergency rooms or self-driving cars. We argue that future solutions should consider a user-centric approach guided by context awareness and emotion sensing capabilities. In this regard, we propose an innovative adaptive framework inspired by symbiosis principles where humans and machines cooperate and co-evolve to support decision making processes. We also discuss the most pressing challenges in adaptive user interfaces to achieve this vision and propose a series of integrative solutions to advance the field.
