This special issue is devoted to the 24th Iberoamerican Congress on Pattern Recognition (CIARP, Congreso Iberoamericano de Reconocimiento de Patrones). CIARP is the yearly international event of a series of conferences on Pattern Recognition organized since 1995 by the national associations for Pattern Recognition and related areas in Iberoamerican countries. The 2019 edition of CIARP has been held in Havana, Cuba, from October 28 to 31, 2019, and this special issue includes the extended versions of selected CIARP 2019 papers. To this CIARP, 128 contributions from 23 countries were submitted. An international Program Committee consisting of 144 prestigious scientists from 17 countries had the task to rigorously evaluate the submissions. At the end of the reviewing process, 72 papers from 14 countries were accepted, with a 45.31% rejection rate. The presentation type, oral or poster, was established by taking into account a number of factors, such as the wider or narrower size of the interested audience, but the level of the paper was not related to the type of presentation. In any case, all contributions were presented in plenary sessions. Besides the 72 accepted submissions, the scientific program of CIARP 2019 also included the contributions of five outstanding invited speakers, namely Ingela Nyström (Uppsala University, Sweden), Petra Perner (Institute of Computer Vision and Applied Computer Sciences IBaI Leipzig, Germany), Alberto Del Bimbo (Università degli Studi di Firenze, Italy), Massimo Tistarelli (Computer Vision Laboratory Università di Sassari, Italy), and Jean-François Bonastre (Université d’Avignon, France). The proceedings of the conference were published in Lectures Notes on Computing Sciences, “Progress in Pattern Recognition, Image Analysis, Computer Vision, and Applications”, LNCS 11,896. * José Ruiz‑Shulcloper [email protected] 1

As usual in the CIARP process for elaborating special issues from the best papers presented at the conference, by taking in consideration the scope of the Pattern Analysis and Application Journal (PAAA) and the topics treated in the CIARP 2019 papers, the recommendations about the suitability of CIARP 2019 papers for the PAAA journal, done by the Program Committee members who handled reviewing of the conference papers, the average scores assigned to each contribution by its referees, and the quality of the presentations done by the authors at the conference, we selected 11 top CIARP 2019 contributions and invited their corresponding authors to submit extended versions of their CIARP 2019 papers to PAAA by June 2020. For the sake of clarity, we informed the authors that even if their papers were recommended for publication, their inclusion in the special
