INTRODUCTION

The International Conference on Social Intelligence and Technology (SOCIETY) is an interdisciplinary venue for researchers, scientists, and practitioners from diverse fields, such as cognitive science, computing, engineering, information science, social science, psychology, sustainability science, economics, business, human-coupled complex systems, human factors, behavior modeling, neural science, linguistics, security, criminal intelligence, health, public policy, to come together to share and present their innovative work in the social context. Social intelligence and technology explores the roles of information/internet/mobile technology in improving our understanding about human behaviors and social interaction in human society from the perspective of individual level, interpersonal level, and community level, building a sustainable social environment, developing social intelligence, as well as their practical applications that have major impacts in solving societal problems such as health, security, energy, environment, and enhancing the sustainability of our society.
