Gender Recognition Based on Facial Image Extraction
Author: Nurul Zarina Md Isa
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Biometric identification
Languages : en
Pages : 66
Book Description
In principle, to combine face detection and gender classification methods may seem simple. However, this process is more complex than it appears because requires many aspects for consideration. The gender classification has attracted much attention in psychological literature, relatively few machine vision methods have been proposed. However it has been extensively studied in the context of surveillance applications and biometrics. This project is mainly concern with offline gender classification using purely image processing technique which using a database that was included in the system. The way of doing this is by extracting the differences between male and female facial features. Obviously the classification base on a single feature is not adequate since humans share many facial properties even within different gender group. So multilayer processing is needed. This project is working as expected based on the scope and objective of project. Although not many varieties of facial images have been considered like colored hair the basic techniques should be just the same. For the system classification, Template Matching Technique is used to match image with the database image. The system attempts are made to capture the most appropriate representation of face images as a whole and exploit the statistical regularities of pixel intensity variations. When attempting recognition, the unclassified image is compared with all the database images, returning a vector of matching score. The unknown person is then classified as the one giving the highest cumulative score. This project will be build using the MATLAB software. Overall, the project can be used and developed for various purposes, particularly to expedite the process of searching the database. The refinement of this project in other hand can lead to more accurate and reliable result by considering other facial properties like eyes, nose and eyebrows.

Face, Age and Gender Recognition Using Local Descriptors

Pages : 0
Book Description
This thesis focuses on the area of face processing and aims at designing a reliable framework to facilitate face, age, and gender recognition. A Bag-of-Words framework has been optimized for the task of face recognition by evaluating different feature descriptors and different bag-of-words configurations. More specifically, we choose a compact set of features (e.g., descriptors, window locations, window sizes, dictionary sizes, etc.) in order to produce the highest possible rate of accuracy. Experiments on a challenging dataset shows that our framework achieves a better level of accuracy when compared to other popular approaches such as dimension reduction techniques, edge detection operators, and texture and shape feature extractors. The second contribution of this thesis is the proposition of a general framework for age and gender classification. Although the vast majority of the existing solutions focus on a single visual descriptor that often only encodes a certain characteristic of the image regions, this thesis aims at integrating multiple feature types. For this purpose, feature selection is employed to obtain more accurate and robust facial descriptors. Once descriptors have been computed, a compact set of features is chosen, which facilitates facial image processing for age and gender analysis. In addition to this, a new color descriptor (CLR-LBP) is proposed and the results obtained is shown to be comparable to those of other pre-existing color descriptors. The experimental results indicates that our age and gender framework outperforms other proposed methods when examined on two challenging databases, where face objects are present with different expressions and levels of illumination. This achievement demonstrates the effectiveness of our proposed solution and allows us to achieve a higher accuracy over the existing state-of-the-art methods.
