A New Automatic Recognition System of Gender, Age and Ethnicity

In this paper a novel approach for recognizing the gender, ethnicity and age with facial images is proposed. The approach is a novel combination of Gabor filter, Adaboost learning and SVM classifier. Gabor filter banks and Adaboost learning are combined to extract key facial features of each pattern. Then use the Gabor+Adaboost features based SVM classifier to recognize the face image of each pattern. The experiment results in the system based on this approach are reported to show a good performance
