A comparison study: the impact of age and gender distribution on age estimation
Chang Kong, Qiuming Luo, Guoliang Chen
Age estimation from a single facial image is a challenging and attractive research area in the computer vision community. Several facial datasets annotated with age and gender attributes became available in the literature. However, one major drawback is that these datasets do not consider the label distribution during data collection. Therefore, the models training on these datasets inevitably have bias for the age having least number of images. In this work, we analyze the age and gender distribution of previous datasets and publish an Uniform Age and Gender Dataset (UAGD) which has almost equal number of female and male images in each age. In addition, we investigate the impact of age and gender distribution on age estimation by comparing DEX CNN model trained on several different datasets. Our experiments show that UAGD dataset has good performance for age estimation task and also it is suitable for being an evaluation benchmark.
