The 4th International Conference on Activity and
Behavior Computing<br>
October 27th - 29th, 2022, London, United Kingdom
(Hybrid)<br>

<br>
Human Activity Recognition has been researched in
thousands of papers so far, with mobile /
environmental sensors in ubiquitous / pervasive
domains, and with cameras in vision domains. As
well, Human Behavior Analysis is also explored for
long-term health care, rehabilitation, emotion
recognition, human interaction, and so on. However,
many research challenges remain for realistic
settings, such as complex and ambiguous activities /
behavior, optimal sensor combinations, (deep)
machine learning, data collection, platform systems,
and killer applications.<br>
<br>
In this conference, we comprehend such research
domains as ABC: Activity and Behavior Computing, and
provide an open and a confluent place for discussing
various aspects and the future of the ABC.<br>
<br>
CALL FOR PAPERS<br>
<br>
We welcome 4 categories of papers: regular papers,
position papers, survey papers, and challenge
papers. The submitted papers are peer reviewed by
expert researchers, and accepted based on the
research quality.<br>
Accepted papers will be included in the Smart
Innovation, Systems and Technologies series of
Springer books (Indexed in ISI Proceedings,
EI-Compendex, SCOPUS, Google Scholar and
Springerlink).<br>
Selected papers will be invited to submit to the
Pattern Recognition Letters journal (5-Year Impact
Factor: 2.350) and to International Journal on
Computer Vision and Signal Processing.<br>
<br>
SCOPE<br>
• Mobile sensor-based ABC<br>
• Environmental sensor-based ABC<br>
• Vision-based ABC<br>
• Multimodal ABC<br>
• Physical / semantic analysis of ABC<br>
• Gait analysis<br>
• Sleep analysis<br>
• Emotion recognition / analysis<br>
• ABC with deep learning<br>
• ABC data mining<br>
• Data collection<br>
• ABC systems<br>
• Interactive ABC<br>
• Healthcare applications<br>
• Sports applications<br>
• Business applications<br>
• Tools for industry<br>
• ABC in the wild<br>
<br>
CATEGORIES<br>
• Regular papers: full technical contents which
describe the accuracy and performance of ABC
Systems, real deployment cases or application of new
paradigms such as deep learning to ABC.<br>
• Survey papers: new perspective or new challenges
in ABC based on literature survey. We do not welcome
just compilations of existing research, but do if it
provides new research horizons.<br>
• Challenge papers: we will provide a dataset and
accept results for activity recognition and papers
describing the methods and the results. Please see
the Challenge Site (TBA) for details.<br>
• Position papers: describe the challenges and
future directions of ABC based on problems that
arise when systems are deployed in real settings.<br>
