The International Conference on Behavioural and Social Computing (BESC) is a major international forum that brings together academic researchers and industry practitioners from artificial intelligence, computational social sciences, natural language processing, business and marketing, and behavioural and psychological sciences to present updated research efforts and progresses on foundational and emerging interdisciplinary topics of BESC, exchange new ideas and identify future research directions. The BESC series of conferences are technically sponsored by IEEE SMC (Systems, Man and Cybernetics) Society as well as IEEE CIS (Computational Intelligence Society) (currently pending approval for the 2023 edition) and the proceedings are published by IEEE.
