[visionlist] Call for Papers (IEEE International Conference on Automatic Face and Gesture Recognition 2026)

[米谷竜]

Dear Colleagues (apologies for cross-posting),

The 20th IEEE International Conference on Automatic Face and Gesture
Recognition (FG 2026)

May 25th – 29th, 2026, Kyoto, Japan.
https://fg2026.ieee-biometrics.org/

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, computer graphics, and
machine learning techniques relevant to face, gesture, and body action, as
well as innovative algorithms and analyses of specific applications.
The 20th IEEE International Conference on Automatic Face and Gesture
Recognition (FG 2026) marks a milestone as the 20th conference in the
series, returning to Japan after nearly three decades. FG 2026 will be held
from May 25th to 29th, 2026, in Kyoto, Japan, as an in-person event. The
conference invites submissions addressing both foundational and emerging
research topics in face and gesture recognition.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
- Face, gesture, and body detection and tracking
- Robust recognition under varying conditions (pose, occlusion,
illumination)
- Generative modeling and neural rendering (e.g., deepfakes, AR/VR)
- Advanced learning paradigms (self-supervised, few-shot, foundation models)
- Soft biometrics and behavioral analysis (emotion, personality,
demographics)
- Multimodal fusion and cross-modal analysis
- Benchmark development and dataset creation
- Cognitive and bio-inspired vision systems
- Bias mitigation, interpretability, and ethical considerations
- Real-world applications and deployment studies
- Paper format and submission

Format
Submitted papers may not be accepted or under review elsewhere. FG 2026
will consider two different paper types, i.e., Short and Long Papers.
Authors should carefully consider the category before submitting a paper.
- Short papers: 4 pages + 1 page for references
- Long papers: 8 pages + references
The main difference between the two is in the size of the contributions,
rather than in their importance or technical quality. Please visit the
submission page for additional details on paper formatting and paper types.
Accepted papers will be published and indexed in IEEEXplore.

Submission
FG 2026 will use a two-round reviewing procedure. New papers can be
submitted in either the first or the second round. The primary benefit of
submitting in Round 1 is that submissions can be invited for resubmission
to Round 2, enabling authors to address reviewer concerns and significantly
improve their work.

Paper submissions are accepted through CMT:
https://cmt3.research.microsoft.com/FG2026/

Important Dates (all Pacific time)
Round 1:
- Abstract submission: Thursday, September 25th, 2025
- Paper submission: Thursday, October 2nd, 2025
- Notifications to authors: Thursday, December 11th, 2025

Round 2:
- Abstract submission: Friday, January 9th, 2026 (only for round 2 new
submissions)
- Paper submission: Thursday, January 15th, 2026
- Notifications to authors: Thursday, April 2nd, 2026
- Camera Ready (for all): Tuesday, April 21st, 2026
