          <p style="text-align: justify;"><span
              style="font-size: small;">Biometrics has become a
              burgeoning research area due to the industrial and
              government needs for authentication, identification,
              security, and privacy concerns. Biometric technology has
              become useful solution for various applications including
              access control, surveillance and privacy, hardware
              security and forensics. During last decade, Deep Learning
              (DL) has received a great attention to solve difficult and
              complex problems in various domains. Its ability to
              automatically learn features from big data has made it a
              major asset.This workshop aims to present and discuss the
              recent advances on deep learning applied to biometrics
              providing innovative solutions to challenging problems in
              biometrics. It is an opportunity to bring researchers and
              experts together to discuss the current and future state
              of biometrics.</span></p>
