Gender Prediction
Explore how to predict gender from facial images by using a pretrained deep learning model with Python. Understand the integration of MediaPipe for face detection and OpenCV for image processing. Gain practical skills to implement gender estimation by processing face regions and interpreting model predictions accurately.
We'll cover the following...
Introduction
The automatic estimation of gender from face images has recently attracted attention due to its wide adoption in various facial analysis applications, especially since the rise of social media platforms.
Gender estimation from facial images plays a large role in many applications, like marketing intelligence. Among these applications, the Android application, AgeBot, finds multiple faces in a picture and estimates the age and gender of each localized face.
Objective
In this lesson, we’ll use a pretrained, deep learning gender detector model that was initially implemented and trained by Gil Levi and Tal Hassner to predict gender using facial images. For additional details, please refer to their publication, released in 2015, “Age and Gender Classification Using Convolutional ...
