    The VAST Challenge is a participation category of the IEEE VAST 2010 Symposium (part of VisWeek 2010). The VAST 2010 Challenge continues in the footsteps of the VAST 2009 Challenge, VAST 2008 Challenge and the 2007 and 2006 contests with the purpose of pushing the forefront of visual analytics tools using benchmark data sets and establishing a forum to advance visual analytics evaluation methods. We also hope it will speed the transfer of VA technology from research labs to commercial products, and increase the availability of evaluation techniques.

    In order to provide more opportunities for increased participation we will again offer an overall Grand Challenge as well as several smaller Mini Challenges.

    The 1st mini-challenge involves text documents; the second mini-challenge use medical record data and death records. The third mini-challenge asks you to analyze genetic sequences.

    The challenge is open to EVERYBODY. Teams may enter one or more mini Challenges independently of the entering the Grand Challenge. ALL teams submitting an entry to a VAST Challenge will be invited to discuss their work during a challenge workshop.

    Entries will be judged on both the correctness of the analysis (based on the availability of ground truth) and the utility of the tools in conducting the analysis.
