The 21st IEEE International Conference on Automatic Face and Gesture Recognition Call for Papers

The 21st IEEE International Conference on Automatic Face and Gesture Recognition

Marrakesh, Morocco
April 26-30, 2027

https://fg2027.ieee-biometrics.org

The IEEE International Conference on Automatic Face and Gesture
Recognition (FG) is the premier international forum for research on
image- and video-based face, gesture, and body behavior analysis and
recognition. Its broad scope encompasses advances in computer vision,
pattern recognition, machine learning, computer graphics, and related
areas, as well as innovative methods and applications involving faces,
gestures, human behavior, and body movements.

The 21st IEEE International Conference on Automatic Face and Gesture
Recognition (FG 2027) marks an important milestone in the history of
the conference series, as it will be held in Africa for the first
time.

FG 2027 will take place April 26–30, 2027, in Marrakesh, Morocco,
as a fully in-person event. We invite submissions addressing both
foundational and emerging research topics in face, gesture, body, and
human behavior analysis and recognition.

Important Dates — All deadlines are Anywhere on Earth (AoE)
