Living in this hyper-connected world, not only are people gaining greater exposure to information from other ends of the world, the connectedness has also breed new behaviour patterns the world has never experienced before. As a result, new opportunities and novel problems from the connected world both arise. Innovative and effective approaches which tackle the problems in the new connected-world domain, such as public health, social security and communication, economics, and education by utilizing sophisticated AI technologies, are of urgent demand. Appropriately applying AI techniques to solve social problems in this connected world will provide the public more effective ways to uncover the hidden knowledge and capture the insights of the problems, thereby efficacious precepts for social good can be conceived.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u00a0This special session \u201cAI for Social Good in the Connected World\u201d aims at providing a platform for researchers from academia and industry in the areas of artificial intelligence, machine learning, data analytics, web mining, social science, cognitive science, public health, urban computing, knowledge engineering, and multimedia computing to exchange ideas and explore novel AI methodologies for modeling complex social-related data as well as efficient solutions to complicated problems arising from different social scenarios in this connected world.
