All papers accepted in Special Sessions will be included in the conference proceedings and indexed.
Scope

Biometric systems have been widely and mainly studied for its use in security applications. Nowadays, other applications, as biomedicine, psychology and/or forensic applications are using biometric information in order to get innovation and better successes.
Most of the today solutions however operate on different methods. The use of Multivariate Processing can reach specialized systems to provide possible best conditions for image processing.
Topics cover all biometric modalities, and multimodal systems, using any kind of sensor or range of acquisition.

Special Session on Bio-inspired Processing for Speech and Audio Applications - BPSAA 2012
* CANCELLED *
Call for Papers
Chair

Hari Krishna Maganti
Foundazione Bruno Kessler, Center for Information Technology - Irst
Italy
All papers accepted in Special Sessions will be included in the conference proceedings and indexed.
Scope

Bio-inspired systems that are motivated by human auditory physiology and perception are being used in several speech and audio applications. The multi-resolution spectral analysis and non-linear transformations present at various stages of the auditory modelling have been investigated extensively for many speech and audio applications. The aim of this session is to discuss about theoretical and applied aspects of bio-inspired systems and techniques.

Scope

Stress has been baptized "the black death of the 21st century". Whether this will become the case or not, it is evident that the number of stress related health problems increase rapidly. This special session explores biofeedback to assess this problem and compares it with traditional measures such as questionnaires and interviews.
