IbPRIA 2025

30/Jun – 3/Jul – Coimbra, Portugal

Website: http://www.ibpria.org

IbPRIA is an international conference co-organized by the Portuguese APRP and Spanish AERFAI chapters of the IAPR International Association for Pattern Recognition, and it is technically endorsed by the IAPR.

IbPRIA consists of high-quality, previously unpublished papers, presented either orally or as a poster, intended to act as a forum for research groups, engineers and practitioners, to present recent results, algorithmic improvements and promising future directions in pattern recognition and image analysis.

All accepted papers will appear in the conference proceedings and will be published in Springer Lecture Notes in Computer Science Series. In addition, a short list of presented papers will be invited to submit extended versions for possible publication after revision in a journal to announce soon. The best paper and best student paper awards will be invited to prepare extended versions to be considered for publication on another journal (to announce soon). The following awards will be given at IbPRIA 2025:

• Best paper award (and additional honorable mention).
• Best student paper award (and additional honorable mention).
• APRP Ph.D. prize 2023-2024.
• AERFAI Ph.D. prize 2023-2024.
