IIH-MSP 2012 is the eighth International Conference on Intelligent Information Hiding and Multimedia Signal Processing. This year the conference is co-sponsored by IEEE and hosted by the University of Piraeus, Piraeus, Greece.
In IIH-MSP 2012 there are 3 Invited Sessions on Biometrics, covering the following aspects:
1. Improved methods for recognition and performance evaluation;
2. Security and privacy issues;
3. Disruptive biometric sensing technologies and new applications.
We invite researchers and professionals in the field of biometrics and related fields to submit fullpapers presenting high quality original research and development for the following tracks, covering but not limited to the following topics:
Session 1: Improved methods for recognition and performance evaluation
Biological biometrics: Finger, face, iris, palm, vein, ear, teeth, finger knuckle, brain wave, heart sound, etc.
Behaviour biometrics: gait, keystroke dynamics, mouse dynamics, in-air signature, etc.
Continuous biometric authentication
New biometric modalities / features
Multi-biometrics and fusion
Fast biometric feature indexing
Aging model
Performance evaluation
Sample and sensor quality assessment
Session 2: Security and privacy issues
