Deadline: April 15, 2022

The IAPR Technical Committee on Biometrics (TC-4) and the IEEE Biometrics Council (IEEE-BC) are seeking proposals for hosting the 2023 International Joint Conference on Biometrics (IJCB 2023) anywhere in the world. A committee established by IAPR TC-4 and IEEE-BC will evaluate all proposals by May 15, 2022.

The International Joint Conference on Biometrics (IJCB) combines two major biometrics conferences – International Conference on Biometrics (ICB) and Biometrics Theory, Application and Systems (BTAS) conference. IJCB is a premier research conference focused on all aspects of biometrics. It is intended to have a broad scope, including advances in the fields of signal processing, machine learning, deep learning, computer vision, statistical/mathematical techniques, ethical and privacy frameworks, system security, databases, and legal policy, that are related to biometrics.

Similar events were conducted in 2011 (http://www.cse.nd.edu/IJCB_11/), 2014 (http://ijcb2014.org/), 2017 (http://www.ijcb2017.org/ijcb2017/index.php), 2020 (https://ieee-biometrics.org/ijcb2020/), 2021 (http://ijcb2021.iapr-tc4.org/) and have proved to be a success as evidenced by the number of paper submissions and delegates in attendance. A similar event is being organized in 2022 as well (http://www.ijcb2022.org/).

Each proposal should include information on (but not limited to):

  • Host organization
  • Details about Organizing Committee and Program Committee Chairs
  • Venue and dates (verify possible conflicts)
  • Accommodation arrangements
  • Paper review plan
  • Publicity plan
  • Timetable with critical milestones
  • Budget estimates and Potential Sponsors

[If an in-person event is not possible, then organizers must be flexible to offer a virtual/hybrid event.]
