About IJCB 2023

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 2023 is the 7th iteration of this major joint event and will be held in Ljubljana (Slovenia), between 25-28 September 2023 as an in-person conference.

Call for Contributions

  • 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

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 submitted for inclusion into IEEE Xplore subject to meeting IEEE Xplore’s scope and quality requirements.

Submission is through CMT and the system will be opened on 2 April, 2023.

Awards and TBIOM Special Issue

Several awards will be given out to the best papers from IJCB 2023, including (1) the best paper award, (2) the best student paper award, (3) daily best poster awards. The awards will consist of a commemorative plaque as well as award money.

Additionally, the authors of the best-reviewed papers will be invited to submit an extended version of their paper to a special issue of the IEEE Transactions on Biometrics, Behavior, and Identity Science (IEEE-TBIOM).
