LITERATURE REVIEW/BACKGROUND STUDY

2.1. Timeline of the reported problem

Early Research and Development (Pre-2010): In the early days of age and gender
prediction with AI, researchers focused on developing algorithms that could learn from
small datasets of labelled images. These algorithms were often based on hand-crafted
features, such as the distance between the eyes or the shape of the jawline.
Emergence of Deep Learning (2010-2012): The emergence of deep learning
techniques, such as convolutional neural networks (CNNs), revolutionized the field of age
and gender prediction. CNNs are able to learn complex features from large datasets of
images, which led to significant improvements in accuracy.
Refinement and Optimization (2013-2015): Researchers began to refine and
optimize deep learning models for age and gender prediction. This included techniques such
as data augmentation, which involves artificially increasing the size and diversity of a
training dataset, and transfer learning, which involves using a pre-trained model on a related
task as a starting point for a new model.
Integration of Large-Scale Datasets (2016-2018): As the availability of large-
scale datasets, such as ImageNet, increased, researchers began to develop even more
powerful deep learning models for age and gender prediction. These models were able to
achieve state-of- the-art accuracy on benchmark datasets.
Real-World Applications and Deployment (2019-2021): Age and gender
prediction technology began to be deployed in a variety of real-world applications, such as
marketing, customer service, and security. For example, age and gender prediction can be
used to target advertising campaigns to specific demographics or to identify potential

FIG 2.1 TIMELINE

2.2. Existing solutions

 The proposed solution in this research involves modifying the structure of a convolutional
neural network (CNN) used in gender and age prediction for human face recognition
applications. This modification is based on integrating two learning methods: Single- Task
Learning (STL) and Deep Multi-Task Learning (DMTL) approaches.

 Utilizing HAAR Cascades for face detection. Employing CaffeNet, a variant of CNN, for
age and gender recognition. Focusing on real-time processing for efficient age and gender
estimation from single face images. Addressing the performance gap in existing methods for
real-world age and gender detection. Aiming to provide accurate age and gender estimation
for various applications like access control and visual surveillance.

 They introduced application form validators and rules, addressing the shortcomings of
existing methods by incorporating a double-check layer validator. This new approach uses
Deep Learning, specifically Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs), to detect gender and
estimate age from a single person’s photo. A web service is implemented to facilitate the
validation process, and the solution is evaluated using University of Palestine students’
photos, demonstrating successful gender prediction but facing challenges in accurately
predicting age.

 The importance of automated age and gender detection, particularly in applications like
person-to-computer interaction and visual surveillance. While existing methods perform well
with neutral facial expressions, they struggle with altered expressions. There is utilization of
two models: one for age-gender prediction using wide ResNet architecture and another for
emotion recognition using conventional CNN architecture. The datasets used are IMDb-
WIKI for age-gender classification and Fer2013for emotion recognition. The wide ResNet
model achieves 96.26% accuracy in age-gender prediction, while the emotion recognition
model achieves 69.2% accuracy.

 To develop a gender prediction and age estimation system using convolutional neural
networks (CNNs) for facial images and real-time videos.Three CNN models with varying
architectures are created and validated on datasets like IMDB and WIKI. Results indicate
significant improvement in system performance, particularly in accuracy for gender
prediction and age estimation tasks. It starts by collecting images from the UTK dataset, pre-
processes them for better quality, then employs CNNs to extract gender and age-related
features. These features are used by classifiers to predict gender and age ranges. The method
achieves high training (92.5%) and validation (90%) accuracies, indicating its effectiveness
for various real-world applications.

 CNNs are effective in handling the complexity of facial appearance and lighting, making
them suitable for this task. OpenCV facilitates real-time image processing and object
detection. Three CNN models are trained on a large dataset with labelled age, gender, and
ethnicity attributes. The models are evaluated on a test set, achieving accuracy rates of 82.5%
for age, 89.45% for gender, and 86.69% for ethnicity prediction.
