Face Gender Classification Based on Independent Component Analysis and Genetic Algorithm
|
Abstract:
The gender of a face is almost its most salient feature,and realizing automatic gender classification according to the face image will boost the performance of face retrieval and face recognition in large face database.This paper proposed a new gender classification method combining independent analysis(ICA) and genetic algorithm(GA).The Fast-ICA algorithm was used to derive independent basic images and projection vectors out of the face images and each ima-ge was represented as a feature vector projected i...
