                ---------- CALL FOR PAPERS -----------<br>
                <br>
                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>
                <br>
                Accepted and presented papers will be published as Book
                Chapters (indexed in ISI Proceedings, EI-Compendex,
                SCOPUS, Google Scholar) (details will be updated soon).<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 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>
