FOR CONFERENCE DS108 ONLY
In addition to the abstract which is due in September, prospective authors are REQUIRED to submit at the same time, a Supplemental File, that includes a full paper (maximum of 12 pages including text, figures, and bibliography) to facilitate the review process. Abstract submissions without the required Supplemental File will not be reviewed or considered for acceptance.


Biometrics is the science of establishing human identity based on the physical and behavioral characteristics of an individual such as fingerprints, iris, face, voice, hand geometry, gait, etc. Reliable automatic recognition of humans is a very important topic in a number of law enforcement (e.g., criminal investigation), government (e.g., border control), and commercial (e.g., logical and physical access control) applications. With increased emphasis on national and global security, there is a growing and urgent need to automatically identify humans both locally and remotely on a routine basis. Biometrics is a rapidly evolving field that engages the research of multiple disciplines including sensor design, pattern recognition, computer vision, image analysis, signal processing, statistics, computer security, etc. The purpose of this conference is to provide a scientific forum for researchers, engineers, system architects, and designers to report recent advances in this important area of human identification using biometrics. Suggested topics for presentation include, but are not limited to:

Biometric Theory
  • pattern recognition
  • computer vision
  • image processing
  • statistical analysis.
Biometric Acquisition and Transmission
  • novel sensor design
  • collaborative data acquisition
  • multi-sensor biometric networks
  • secure biometric transmission.
Biometric Modalities
  • fingerprint and palmprint
  • face (grayscale, color, multispectral, 3D, video, etc.)
  • iris
  • hand geometry
  • speech
  • signature/handwriting
  • gait
  • novel biometrics
  • multimodal biometrics.
Biometric System Design and Evaluation
  • scalable identification architectures
  • real-time embedded systems
  • biometric smart cards
  • integration with RFID
  • system interoperability
  • performance prediction models.
Biometric Security and Privacy
  • liveness (spoof) detection
  • template protection
  • cancelable templates
  • encryption and watermarking
  • security analysis
  • privacy enhancing technology
  • template aging
  • individuality models.
Biometric Applications
  • travel and transportation
  • border control
  • homeland security
  • access control
  • airport security
  • law enforcement
  • e-authentication.
