CSE252C Project Report Facial Attractiveness Scoring
نویسنده
چکیده
The evaluation of attractiveness followed a scoring methodology rather than the usual classification one has not been attempted. This is desired for the sole reason that any person would be able to further decide between the attractiveness of two faces even if both are deemed attractive. In modelling this scenario, a continous scoring function is more appropriate. In this project, we implemented this scoring using Support Vector Machines to perform Regression on SIFT and Eigenfaces features extracted from the given data. The best results show a mean squared error of 0.082, which is considered promising in our case. With further refinement, such a tool will turn to be very useful in the hands of Internet dating services.

A new approach in determining lateral facial attractiveness.
INTRODUCTION The current literature on facial attractiveness focuses on anterior-posterior facial portraits, with lateral facial analysis limited to comparing facial attractiveness scores with various facial measurements. Here we use a novel approach to more rigorously study lateral facial attractiveness by combining morphing software and a genetic algorithm with web-based facial attractiveness...
متن کاملA Novel Framework for Assessing Facial Attractiveness Based on Facial Proportions
In this paper, we present a novel framework for automatically assessing facial attractiveness that considers four ratio feature sets as objective elements of facial attractiveness. In our framework, these feature sets are combined with three regression-based predictors to estimate a facial beauty score. To enhance the system’s performance to make it comparable with human scoring, we apply a sco...
متن کاملBrain systems for assessing facial attractiveness.
Attractiveness is a facial attribute that shapes human affiliative behaviours. In a previous study we reported a linear response to facial attractiveness in orbitofrontal cortex (OFC), a region involved in reward processing. There are strong theoretical grounds for the hypothesis that coding stimulus reward value also involves the amygdala. The aim of the present investigation is to address whe...
متن کاملFacial attractiveness modulates early and late event-related brain potentials.
Facial attractiveness is of high importance for human interaction and communication, and everyday experience suggests that the mere aspect of a face elicits spontaneous appraisal of attractiveness. However, little is known about the time course of brain responses related to this process. In the present study, event-related brain potentials were recorded during attractiveness classification of f...
متن کاملSymmetry and Human Facial Attractiveness
Symmetry may act as a marker of phenotypic and genetic quality and is preferred during mate selection in a variety of species. Measures of human body symmetry correlate with attractiveness, but studies manipulating human face images report a preference for asymmetry. These results may reflect unnatural feature shapes and changes in skin textures introduced by image processing. When the shape of...
