Contributions describing applications of Pattern Recognition techniques to real-world problems, interdisciplinary research, experimental and/or theoretical studies yielding new insights that advance Pattern Recognition methods are especially encouraged. Papers describing original work are invited in any of the areas listed below. Accepted papers, presented at the conference by one of the authors, will be published in the proceedings of ICPRAM with an ISBN. Acceptance will be based on quality, relevance and originality. There will be both oral and poster sessions. Special sessions, dedicated to case-studies and commercial presentations, as well as technical tutorials, dedicated to technical/scientific topics, are also envisaged: companies interested in presenting their products/methodologies or researchers interested in presenting a demo or lecturing a tutorial are invited to contact the conference secretariat. *CONFERENCE AREAS* Each of the topic areas is expanded below but the sub-topics list is not exhaustive. Papers may address one or more of the listed sub-topics, although authors should not feel limited by them. Unlisted but related sub-topics are also acceptable, provided they fit in one of the following main topic areas: *1*. THEORY AND METHODS *2*. APPLICATIONS *AREA 1: THEORY AND METHODS* - Advanced Learning Methods - Linear Models and Dimensionality Reduction - Machine Learning Methods - Model Representation and Selection - Shape Representation - Signal Processing - Bayesian Models and Stochastic Methods - Classification and Clustering - Deep Learning and Neural Networks - Ensemble Methods - Feature Selection and Extraction - Knowledge Acquisition and Representation *AREA 2: APPLICATIONS* - Audio and Speech Analysis - Motion Tracking and Action Recognition - Natural Language Processing - Robotics - Sensors and Early Vision - Virtual Environments - Bioinformatics and Systems Biology - Biometrics - Data Mining and Algorithms for Big Data - Document Analysis - Image and Video Analysis and Understanding - Industry Related Applications - Information Retrieval - Medical Imaging - *KEYNOTE SPEAKERS * *Nelly Bencomo*, <https://icpram.scitevents.org/KeynoteSpeakers.aspx#1>Durham University, United Kingdom *Amparo Alonso Betanzos*, <https://icpram.scitevents.org/KeynoteSpeakers.aspx#2>University of A Coruña, Spain *Alberto Del Bimbo*, <https://icpram.scitevents.org/KeynoteSpeakers.aspx#3>Università degli Studi di Firenze, Italy *Thomas B. Moeslund*, <https://icpram.scitevents.org/KeynoteSpeakers.aspx#4>Aalborg University, Denmark *PAPER SUBMISSION * Authors can submit their work in the form of a complete paper or an abstract, but please note that accepted abstracts are presented but not published in the proceedings of the conference. Complete papers can be submitted as a Regular Paper, representing completed and validated research, or as a Position Paper, portraying a short report of work in progress or an arguable opinion about an issue discussing ideas, facts, situations, methods, procedures or results of scientific research focused on one of the conference topic areas. Authors should submit a paper in English, carefully checked for correct grammar and spelling, addressing one or several of the conference areas or topics. Each paper should clearly indicate the nature of its technical/scientific contribution, and the problems, domains or environments to which it is applicable. To facilitate the double-blind paper evaluation method, authors are kindly requested to produce and provide the paper WITHOUT any reference to any of the authors, including the authors’ personal details, the acknowledgments section of the paper and any other reference that may disclose the authors’ identity. When submitting a complete paper please note that only original papers should be submitted. Authors are advised to read INSTICC's ethical norms regarding plagiarism and self-plagiarism <https://icpram.scitevents.org/NormsPlagiarism.aspx> thoroughly before submitting and must make sure that their submissions do not substantially overlap work which has been published elsewhere or simultaneously submitted to a journal or another conference with proceedings. Papers that contain any form of plagiarism will be rejected without reviews. All papers must be submitted through the online submission platform PRIMORIS <http://www.insticc.org/primoris> and should follow the instructions and templates that can be found under Guidelines and Templates <https://icpram.scitevents.org/Guidelines.aspx>. After the paper submission has been successfully completed, authors will receive an automatic confirmation e-mail. *PUBLICATIONS* All accepted complete papers will be published in the conference proceedings, under an ISBN reference, on paper and on digital support. SCITEPRESS is a member of CrossRef (http://www.crossref.org/) and every paper on our digital library is given a DOI (Digital Object Identifier). The proceedings will be submitted for indexation by SCOPUS, Google Scholar, DBLP, Semantic Scholar, EI and Web of Science / Conference Proceedings Citation Index. *IMPORTANT DATES* Conference Date: *23 - 25 February, 2025* <https://icpram.scitevents.org/Glossary.aspx#RP> *Regular Papers <https://icpram.scitevents.org/Glossary.aspx#RP>* Paper Submission: October 22, 2024 (expired) Authors Notification: *December 4, 2024* Camera Ready and Registration: *December 20, 2024* <https://icpram.scitevents.org/Glossary.aspx#PP> *Position Papers /Regular Papers <https://icpram.scitevents.org/Glossary.aspx#PP>* Paper Submission: *November 13, 2024* Authors Notification: *December 20, 2024* Camera Ready and Registration: *January 13, 2025* *Workshops* Workshop Proposal: October 17, 2024 (expired) Paper Submission: *November 15, 2024* Authors Notification: *January 6, 2025* Camera Ready and Registration: *January 22, 2025* *Special Sessions* Special Session Proposal: October 17, 2024 (expired) *Tutorials* Tutorial Proposal: *January 17, 2025* *Demos* Demo Proposal: *January 17, 2025* *Panels* Panel Proposal: *January 17, 2025* *Abstracts* Abstract Submission: *January 7, 2025* Authors Notification: *January 20, 2025* Camera Ready and Registration: *January 28, 2025* *SECRETARIAT* *ICPRAM Secretariat * Address: Avenida de S.
