Motivation: In forensic or medico-legal investigation as well as in anthropology the gender determination of the subject (hit by a disastrous or any kind of traumatic situation) is mostly the first step. In state-of-the-art techniques the…
In this work we propose a novel deep-learning approach for age estimation based on face images. We first introduce a dual image augmentation-aggregation approach based on attention. This allows the network to jointly utilize multiple face…
Visual appearance-based person retrieval is a challenging problem in surveillance. It uses attributes like height, cloth color, cloth type and gender to describe a human. Such attributes are known as soft biometrics. This paper proposes…
Generative AI now produces photorealistic portraits that circulate widely in social and newslike contexts. Human ability to distinguish real from synthetic faces is time-sensitive because image generators continue to improve while public…
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to observe change in accuracies of convolutional neural networks (CNN) models (ratio of correct classifications to total predictions) on thoracic radiological images by creating different binary…
VoxCeleb datasets are widely used in speaker recognition studies. Our work serves two purposes. First, we provide speaker age labels and (an alternative) annotation of speaker gender. Second, we demonstrate the use of this metadata by…
Modern day audio signal classification techniques lack the ability to classify low feature audio signals in the form of spectrographic temporal frequency data representations. Additionally, currently utilized techniques rely on full diverse…
The human ear is generally universal, collectible, distinct, and permanent. Ear-based biometric recognition is a niche and recent approach that is being explored. For any ear-based biometric algorithm to perform well, ear detection and…
