2015 IEEE Symposium on Computational Intelligence in Biometrics and Identity Management
(IEEE CIBIM'15)

The 2015 IEEE International Symposium on Computational Intelligence in Biometrics and Identity Management (CIBIM 2015) will be held within the 2015 IEEE Symposium Series on Computational Intelligence (SSCI 2015).

Biometric technology is the technology of the 21st century which uses measurable physiological or behavioural characteristics to reliably distinguish one person from another. The technology is fast gaining popularity as means of personal identification and verification for different commercial, government and law enforcement applications. However, most existing biometric systems could only perform well with high quality samples of the biometric trait from cooperative users. Computational intelligence (CI), primarily based on neural networks (NN), fuzzy systems (FS), evolutionary computation (EC), etc., is a suitable approach for solving challenging real-world biometric applications.

The main objective of this symposium is to bring researchers from academia and industry together to exchange the latest theoretical and experimental CI solutions in biometrics and identity management. This event will provide an interdisciplinary forum for researchers, developers and practitioner especially in the CI field to present state of the art biometric research and technology, as well as the potential problems in real applications.

Topics

The symposium topics include, but are certainly not limited to the following areas:

CI-based biometric algorithms, techniques and systems
Machine learning, neural-networks and artificial intelligence methods in biometrics and identity management
Adaptive biometric systems for static and dynamically-changing environments
Intelligent and evolutionary biometric systems
Biometric solutions for physical and logical securities
Biometric smart ID, RFID ePassport, biometric authentication and identity management
Covert and unconstrained biometrics
Multiple biometrics, multi-modal biometrics, and multi-classifier systems
Security and privacy issues, biometric cryptography and template protection
Soft biometrics and new biometric modalities
Mobile biometric devices and embedded biometric systems
