The key objective of biometric competitions is to introduce benchmarking of state-of-art algorithms relating to biometrics identification using transparent evaluation protocols. The Second International Joint Conference on Biometrics (IJCB 2014) is supporting the organization of the following five biometrics algorithm competitions.
