About IJCB 2021

The 2021 International Joint Conference on Biometrics (IJCB 2021) combines two major biometrics conferences, the IEEE Biometrics Theory, Applications, and Systems (BTAS) conference and the International Conference on Biometrics (ICB). The blending of these two conferences in 2021 is made through a special agreement between the IEEE Biometrics Council and the IAPR TC4.

The conference will be organized in a mixed mode. Participants who cannot attend in person can participate online

The conference will 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 all areas of current Biometrics research and applications.
