Biometrics technology relies on the physiological traits such as fingerprint, face, palmprint, and iris pattern, or behavioral traits, such as gait, signature, handwriting, and keystroke dynamics for assigning unique identities to the individuals. In spite of the huge demands on biometrics systems, there are still several challenges that need to be addressed in order to enhance the performance of any biometric system in terms of time and accuracy. This special session emphasizes the usage of the advanced signal processing techniques for addressing some biometrics related problems. Common signal processing techniques such as spatial and frequency domains filtering, Scale-Invariant Feature Transform, and Wavelets contribute very well to solve some biometrics problems, and hence the advanced signal processing techniques are expected to achieve better results when tackling biometrics related problems. The aim of this session is to attract researchers and practitioners from academia and industry, and provide a discussion environment in order to share their experiences of using advanced signal processing techniques for addressing the challenges in biometrics research area. Topics of interest include but are not limited to:- Advanced signal processing techniques:

Real-time signal processing designed for embedded systems

Transforms and data representation techniques

Data clustering and reduction techniques

Genetic algorithms and fuzzy systems

Filtering techniques

- Applications with biometric data:

Personal identification and privacy protection

Feature extraction and noise removal

Data hidden and watermarking

Modeling of aging effects

Liveness detection
