The incorporation of technology into various aspects of our lives has brought to light the vast

potential of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in addressing some of the most pressing challenges in

fields such as well-being and social services. However, while the benefits that AI can provide

are undeniable, there are also significant challenges that must be addressed in order to

effectively integrate these intelligent technologies into real-world settings and ensure their

responsible and ethical use, to maximize potential benefits. There are a number of established

Artificial Intelligence approaches that can improve wellbeing and quality of life, through

assistive, diagnostic and monitoring tools, which are based on natural language processing,

computer vision, and deep reinforcement learning. These techniques can be used to extract

valuable insights from data and inform the development of new services and products. In

light of this, the conference "AI-driven Services for Improving Well-being and Quality of

Life" aims to address the growing need to utilize AI techniques to enhance the well-being and

quality of life of individuals and communities.

List of topics include, but not, limited to the following:

 Medical Informatics with AI for Well-being

 Data management with AI for Well-being services and devices

 Privacy and security in Well-being data management with AI and cybersecurity

 Role of AI in Electronic Well-being

 Well-being data and metrics prediction using AI

 AI and Ethical computational intelligence for Well-being data management

 Deep learning for Well-being image processing and decision making

 Well-being behavioral classification with deep learning and computer based techniques

 Well-being sustainability and quality

 Advances in distributed machine learning for indoor/outdoor data management

 New trends in explainable AI analytics with deep learning and computer vision

 Role of teachers and technologies in the state of education for sustainable development

and global citizenship
