FG 2015 - 2015 IEEE International Conference on Automatic Face and Gesture Recognition

The 11th IEEE International Conference on Automatic Face and Gesture Recognition (FG 2015) will be held in Ljubljana, Slovenia on May 4-8, 2015. The IEEE conference series on Automatic Face and Gesture Recognition is the premier international forum for research in image and video-based face, gesture, and body movement recognition. Its broad scope includes: advances in fundamental computer vision, pattern recognition and computer graphics; machine learning techniques relevant to face, gesture, and body motion; new algorithms and applications. The conference presents research that advances the state-of-the-art in these and related areas, leading to new capabilities in various application domains. For FG 2015 we are soliciting papers in all areas of face and gesture recognition. Topics of interest include but are not limited to:
Face recognition, analysis and synthesis,
Facial expression analysis and synthesis,
Gesture recognition, analysis and synthesis,
Body motion analysis and synthesis,
Action recognition,
Psychological and behavioral analysis,
Technologies and applications
Submissions: Paper submissions may be up to eight pages in conference format. Papers longer than six pages will be subject to a page fee for the additional pages (two max). Submissions to FG 2015 should represent original research work that is not under review elsewhere. All submissions will be rigorously reviewed and should clearly demonstrate improvements over the existing state of the art. Papers accepted and presented at FG 2015 will be submitted for inclusion into IEEE Xplore. A selection of the best-reviewed papers from FG 2015 will be invited to a special issue of the Image and Vision Computing journal. Submission details will be made available on the conference website.
Workshops and tutorials: Workshops and tutorials will be held on May 4 and May 8. Detailed information on workshop and tutorial proposals will be made available on this web-site once the all deadlines are finalized.
Demos and exhibitions: Demo sessions will provide the opportunity to present new methods, applications and technology relevant to the FG community. Organizations are also invited to exhibit their products and services and inform the FG community about commercialization of research results. More information on demos and exhibitions will be made available on this web-site.
Special sessions: Special sessions will focus on “Recent advances in face and gesture recognition”. Papers accepted for the special sessions will be part of the conference proceedings and will be subjected to the same review procedure as regular conference submissions. Details on special session proposals will be made available on this web-site.
Evaluations/competitions: The aim of the evaluations/competitions held in the scope of FG 2015 is to provide a common ground for comparison and analysis of different techniques in all areas relevant to the FG community. Detailed information for potential evaluation/competition organizers will be made available on this web-site.
Conference Venue: The conference will be held in Cankarjev Dom ? Congress Center Ljubljana, which is located at the heart of Slovenias capital Ljubljana, at walking distance from the attractive old part of the city and other major attractions.
