SBP is a multidisciplinary conference with a selective single paper track and poster session. SBP also invites a small number of high quality tutorials and nationally recognized keynote speakers.
Social computing harnesses the power of computational methods to study social behavior within a social context. Cultural behavioral modeling refers to representing behavior and culture in the abstract, and is a convenient and powerful way to conduct virtual experiments and scenario analysis. Both social computing and cultural behavioral modeling are techniques designed to achieve a better understanding of complex behaviors, patterns, and associated outcomes of interest. Moreover, these approaches are inherently interdisciplinary; subsystems and system components exist at multiple levels of analysis (i.e., “cells to societies”) and across multiple disciplines, from engineering and the computational sciences to the social and health sciences. The SBP conference provides a forum for researchers and practitioners from academia, industry, and government agencies to exchange ideas on current challenges in social computing, behavioral modeling and prediction, and on state-of-the-art methods and best practices being adopted to tackle these challenges. Call for Papers: Papers (both regular and short papers) are solicited on research issues, theories, and applications. Topics of interests include, but are not limited to, Basic Research on Sociocultural & Behavioral Processes using SBP Group interaction and collaboration Group formation and evolution Group representation and profiling Collective action and governance Cultural patterns & representation Social conventions and social contexts Influence process and recognition Public opinion representation Viral marketing and information diffusion Psycho-cultural situation awareness Methodological Issues in SBP Mathematical foundations Verification and validation Sensitivity analysis Matching technique or method to research questions Metrics and evaluation Methodological innovation Model federation and integration Evolutionary computing Network analysis and optimization Military & Security Applications Group formation and evolution in the political context Technology and flash crowds Networks and political influence Group representation and profiling Reasoning about terrorist group behaviors and policies towards them Health Applications of SBP Social network analysis to understand health behavior Modeling of health policy and decision making Modeling of behavioral aspects of infectious disease spread Intervention design and modeling for behavioral health Other Applications of SBP Economic applications of SBP Reasoning about development aid through SBP Reasoning about global educational efforts through SBP IMPORTANT DATES: Paper Registration Deadline: November 7, 2014 (11:59pm, EST) Paper Submission: November 14, 2014 (11:59pm, EST) Author Notification: December 19, 2014 (11:59pm, EST) Format and Submission: SBP15 Conference Proceedings will be published in Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LCNS) by Springer.
