چکیده
Gender recognition plays an important role for a wide range of application in the field of Human Computer Interaction. In this paper, we propose a gender recognition system based on 2D Discrete Cosine Transform and Neural Networks. In particular, a discriminability criterion is used to select the DCT coefficients that make up the biometric template. Experimental results show how the proposed approach leads to a significant enhancement of recognition performances.

Improving the quality of images synthesized by discrete cosines transform – regression based method using principle component analysis
Purpose: Different views of an individuals’ image may be required for proper face recognition. Recently, discrete cosines transform (DCT) based method has been used to synthesize virtual views of an image using only one frontal image. In this work the performance of two different algorithms was examined to produce virtual views of one frontal image. Materials and Methods: Two new meth...
متن کاملA Comparative Study of Gender and Age Classification in Speech Signals
Accurate gender classification is useful in speech and speaker recognition as well as speech emotion classification, because a better performance has been reported when separate acoustic models are employed for males and females. Gender classification is also apparent in face recognition, video summarization, human-robot interaction, etc. Although gender classification is rather mature in a...
متن کاملGender Recognition Using PCA and DCT of Face Images
In this paper we propose a gender recognition algorithm of face images. We have used PCA and DCT for dimensionality reduction. The algorithm is based on a genetic algorithm to improve the selection of training set of images for the PCA algorithm. Genetic algorithm helps to select the images, which best represent each gender, from the image database. We have evaluated a nearest neighbor classifi...

In this paper, a new face recognition system based on Haar wavelet transform (HWT) and Principal Component Analysis (PCA) using Levenberg-Marquardt backpropagation (LMBP) neural network is presented. The image face is preprocessed and detected. The Haar wavelet is used to form the coefficient matrix for the detected face. The image feature vector is obtained by computing PCA for the coefficient...
