[dbjapan] Fwd: ABC2024 in 北九州&中津（福沢諭吉の生家の近く）

DBJAPANの皆様 九工大の井上創造です。 行動と振る舞いに関するABC2024国際会議ですが、 5月29日に北九州で、5/30-31に大分県中津市に移動して行います。 1月17日がタイトルとabstract、2月7日が論文締め切りです。 中津市は、福沢諭吉の生家の近くです。 今回はケアXDXセンターとしてジャーナルを出したいと思いますので、ぜひぜひ投稿をご検討くださいw。 ---------- CALL FOR PAPERS ----------- The 6th International Conference on Activity and Behavior Computing May 29-31, 2024, Nakatsu & Kitakyushu, Japan (Hybrid) https://abc-research.github.io/ (Please send an empty email to abc2024(a)sozolab.jp to get updates!) 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. 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. CALL FOR PAPERS We welcome 3 categories of papers: regular papers, position papers, and challenge papers. The submitted papers are peer reviewed by expert researchers, and accepted based on the research quality. Accepted and presented papers will be published as IEEE Proceedings or a J-Stage open access journal (Authors can choose. Details will be updated soon). SCOPE • Mobile sensor-based ABC • Environmental sensor-based ABC • Vision-based ABC • Multimodal ABC • Physical / semantic analysis of ABC • Gait analysis • Sleep analysis • Emotion recognition / analysis • ABC with deep learning • ABC data mining • Data collection • ABC systems • Interactive ABC • Healthcare applications • Nursing applications • Elderly care applications • Sports applications • Business applications • Tools for industry • ABC in the wild CATEGORIES - Regular papers (4-10 pages) (TBA): full technical content papers (to be published in IEEE proceedings or J-Stage open access journal). - Position papers (2-4 pages): describe the challenges and future directions of ABC based on problems that arise when systems are deployed in real settings (Not to be published). - Challenge papers: We will provide a dataset and accept results for a recognition challenge with papers describing the methods and the results. We are thinking of Generative AI challenges (TBA).
