چکیده

In this paper we present an study on the importance of the grid configuration in gender recognition from whole body static images. By using a simple classifier (AdaBoost) and the well-known Histogram of Oriented Gradients features we test several grid configurations. Compared with previous approaches, which use more complicated classifiers or feature extractors, our approach outperforms them in the case of the frontal view recognition and almost equals them in the case of the mixed view (i.e. frontal and back views combined without distinction).

A Predictive Model for Emotion Recognition Based on Individual Characteristics and Autonomic Changes

Introduction: The importance of individual differences in the problem of emotion recognition has been repeatedly stated in the studies. The major concentration of this study was the prediction of heart rate variability (HRV) changes due to affective stimuli from the subject characteristics. These features were age (A), gender (G), linguality (L), and sleep (S) information. In addition, the most...

A 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...
