*********************************************************************************

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
