description | Gender classification from human face images has attracted researchers over the past decade. It has great impact in different fields including defense, human-computer interaction, surveillance industry, and mobile applications. Many methods and techniques have been proposed depending on clear digital images and complex feature extraction preprocessing. However, most recent critical real systems use thermal cameras. This paper has the novelty of utilizing thermal images in gender classification. It proposes a unique approach called IRT_ResNet that adopts residual network (ResNet) model with different layer configurations: 18, 50, and 101. Two different datasets of thermal images have been leveraged to train and test these models. The proposed approach has been compared with convolutional neural network (CNN), principal component analysis (PCA), local binary pattern (LBP), and scale invariant feature transform (SIFT). The experimental results show that the proposed model has higher overall classification accuracy, precision, and F-score compared to the other techniques. |
