Selected Works From Automated Face and Gesture Recognition 2020

The 15th IEEE International Conference on Automatic Face and Gesture Recognition (FG 2020) was held online between 16 and 20 November 2020. 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. The program chairs of FG 2020 invited the authors of outstanding papers from over 75 accepted papers to submit extended versions of their work to a special issue of the IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON BIOMETRICS, BEHAVIOR AND IDENTITY SCIENCE, based on topical suitability, reviewer scores, and area chair comments. These submissions went through the normal peer-review process at TBIOM—including in some instances substantial further revision and improvement—leading to the set of three papers appearing in this issue.
