| Abstract: | With its wide range of applicability, gender classification is an important task in face image analysis and it has drawn a great interest from the pattern recognition community. In this paper, we aim to deal with this problem using Local Binary Pattern Histogram Sequences as feature vectors in general. Differently from what has been done in similar studies, the algorithm parameters used in cropping and feature extraction steps are selected after an extensive grid search using BANCA and MOBIO databases. The final system which is evaluated on FERET, MORPH-II and LFW with gender balanced and imbalanced training sets is shown to achieve commensurate and better results compared to other state-of-the-art performances on those databases. The system is additionally tested for cross-database training in order to assess its accuracy in real world conditions. For LFW and MORPH-II, BeFIT protocols are used. |
