Human age estimation is an important research topic and can find its applications in such as commodity recommendation and security monitoring. The establishment of existing estimators basically follows a same pipeline, i.e., an estimator is built from a given training dataset like FG-NET and then evaluated on a holdout testing set to determine its effectiveness. In doing so, a usually-followed assumption...
In this paper we investigate whether human digital fingerprints can be used to estimate human age-groups. To our knowledge, human age-group estimation using digital fingerprints have not been addressed formally. Human age-group estimation can be applied in the areas of online child protection, age based access control or customized services based on estimated age-groups. Motivated by the fact that...
Researchers have previously studied the prediction of “soft biometric” attributes such as gender and ethnicity from iris texture images. We present the results of an initial study to predict the relative age of a person from such images. We conclude that is possible to categorize iris images as representing a young or older person at levels of accuracy statistically significantly greater than random...
Automatic age estimation is the process of using a computer to predict the age of a person automatically based on a given facial image. While this problem has numerous real-world applications, the high variability of aging patterns and the sparsity of available data present challenges for model training. Here, instead of training one global aging function, we train an individual function for each...
We have investigated a technique for recognising faces invariant of facial expressions. We apply multi-linear tensor algebra, which subsumes linear algebra, to analyse and recognise 3D face surfaces. This potent framework possesses a remarkable ability to deal with the shortcomings of principle component analysis in less constrained situations. A set of vector spaces can be used to represent the variation...
As a customer of insulation products, the Navy has had and continues to have a serious interest in the thermal stability of insulation materials and systems. This interest, of course, is dedicated to improving the reliability of its vessels. To achieve this, in the area of electrical equipment, the Navy found it necessary to develop functional methods capable of measuring the thermal stability of...
