This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 15th International Conference on Green, Pervasive, and Cloud Computing, GPC 2020, held in Xi''an, China, in November 2020.

The 30 full papers presented in this book together with 8 short papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 96 submissions. They cover the following topics: Device-free Sensing; Machine Learning; Recommendation Systems; Urban Computing; Human Computer Interaction; Internet of Things and Edge Computing; Positioning; Applications of Computer Vision; CrowdSensing; and Cloud and Related Technologies.

Over the last decade, there has been a growing interest in human behavior analysis, motivated by societal needs such as security, natural interfaces, affective computing, and assisted living. However, the accurate and non-invasive detection and recognition of human behavior remain major challenges and the focus of many research efforts.

Traditionally, in order to identify human behavior, it is first necessary to continuously collect the readings of physical sensing devices (e.g., camera, GPS, and RFID), which can be worn on human bodies, attached to objects, or deployed in the environment. Afterwards, using recognition algorithms or classification models, the behavior types can be identified so as to facilitate advanced applications. Although such traditional approaches deliver satisfactory performance and are still widely used, most of them are intrusive and require specific sensing devices, raising issues such as privacy and deployment costs.

In this book, we will present our latest findings on non-invasive sensing and understanding of human behavior. Specifically, this book differs from existing literature in the following senses. Firstly, we focus on approaches that are based on non-invasive sensing technologies, including both sensor-based and device-free variants. Secondly, while most existing studies examine individual behaviors, we will systematically elaborate on how to understand human behaviors of various granularities, including not only individual-level but also group-level and community-level behaviors. Lastly, we will discuss the most important scientific problems and open issues involved in human behavior analysis.

This two-volume set (CCIS 1879 and 1880) constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 9th International Conference of Pioneering Computer Scientists, Engineers and Educators, ICPCSEE 2023 held in Harbin, China, during September 22–24, 2023.

The 52 full papers and 14 short papers presented in these two volumes were carefully reviewed and selected from 244 submissions. 

The papers are organized in the following topical sections:

Part II: Data-driven Healthcare, Data-driven Smart City/Planet, Social Media and Recommendation Systems and Education using big data, intelligent computing or data mining, etc.
