*** About IJCB 2025 ***
The IEEE International Joint Conference on Biometrics (IJCB) is the
premier international forum for research in biometrics and related
technologies. It combines two major biometrics conferences, the IEEE
Biometrics Theory, Applications, and Systems (BTAS) conference and the
International Conference on Biometrics (ICB), and is made possible
through a special agreement between the IEEE Biometrics Council and
the IAPR TC-4. IJCB 2025 is the 9th iteration of this major joint
event and will be held in Osaka, Japan between 8-11 September 2025 as
an in-person conference.

*** Call for Contributions ***
IJCB 2025 is intended to have a broad scope and invites papers that
advance biometric technologies, sensor design, feature extraction and
matching algorithms, security and privacy, and social impact of
biometrics technology. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

+ Face, Iris, Fingerprint, Palmprint
+ Periocular, Ear, Vein, Speech
+ Gait, Gesture and Action Recognition
+ Multi-modal and Multi-Spectral Biometrics
+ Mobile-based Biometrics
+ Template Protection and Cryptosystems
+ Privacy, Demographic Bias, Fairness
+ Biometrics Explainability and Interpretability
+ Template Design, Selection and Update
+ Datasets, Evaluation, Benchmarking
+ Performance Modelling and Prediction
+ Large scale ID Management
+ Anti-spoofing, Presentation Attack Detection
+ Biometric DeepFakes, Digital Data Forensics
+ Biometric-related Law Enforcement and Forensics
+ Biometrics in Healthcare, Banking, IoT
+ Biometric-related Synthetic Realities
+ Ethical, Social and Legal Issues

 ***Paper Submission ***
Submitted papers may not be accepted or under review
elsewhere. Submissions may be up to eight pages, plus additional
references, in conference format. Please visit the submission page for
additional details on paper formatting. Accepted papers will be
