The International Face Performance Conference (IFPC) 2025

Date: 2025-04-01 - 2025-04-03 Location: This will be a virtual event

Organizer: National Institute for Standards and Technology (NIST) in collaboration with the Department of Homeland Security’s Science and Technology Directorate (DHS S&T) and European Association for Biometrics (EAB)
Registration (ext.)

The IFPC 2025, takes place in remote participation mode, from April 1 until 3, 2025. The IFPC focuses on all technical factors affecting the deployment and use of high performance face recognition applications, including applications, standards, quality assessment,human aspects, demographic aspects, demographic effects, age and ageing effects, presentation attack detection, morphing datasets, their preparation, training and tuning, non-cooperative uses, accuracy measurement, and performance tests.

With support of the Department of Homeland Security's Science and Technology Directorate, the conference aims to assemble speakers from all over the world involved in face recognition development, procurement, deployment as well as operations. The main aim of the IFPC is to bring greater maturity to face recognition by improving performance, transparency and trustworthiness. Furthermore, during this event, speakers have the opportunity to present proposals for technical or policy presentations which address problems that might influence face recognition operations and applications. The IFPC focuses on improving relevant factors concerning face recognition, including performance, transparency and trustworthiness.

Program | Registration

The 12th edition of the EAB Research Projects Conference is organised by the European Association on Biometrics (EAB)

The conference is currently the largest event on research funded by the European Union in the area of Biometrics and Identity Management. Over the previous successful editions, EAB-RPC has become the main forum in Europe where attendees can simultaneously: promote research carried out in biometrics, forge new links and networks, and identify the appropriate partners for possible future project applications. Last year’s edition welcomed over 70 participants from academia, industry and public institutions.
