BIOSIG 2024 in Darmstadt

27 September 2024

BIOSIG 2024 took place in Darmstadt on September 26 and 27, at the end of the Darmstadt Biometrics Week. Beside three keynotes, presenting the latest news about face image quality (BSI), synthetic realities (UniCamp), and voice presentation attack detection (Microsoft), the program included 15 oral presentations and 10 posters. During the breaks and during the dinner on Thursday, the participants had plenty of opportunities to meet  old friends in the biometric community and network with new contacts from academia, industry and governmental institutions.

At the closing session, the Best Poster and Best Paper Awards were granted - congratulations to the winners, who had been chosen by the attendees!

We will be happy to welcome you next year in Darmstadt again, please check https://biosig.de/!
