Abstract

This project implements an age and gender prediction system using OpenCV and pre-
trained deep learning models. The application detects faces in real-time from a video feed
and predicts the age group and gender of each detected face. This report outlines the system
design, methodology, and results achieved during the project.
Acknowledgments
I express my heartfelt gratitude to my guide, [Guide's Name], for their invaluable guidance,
support, and encouragement throughout this project. I also thank my institution for
providing the resources necessary to complete this work.

Introduction In recent years, advancements in computer vision and deep learning have
facilitated the development of applications capable of understanding human characteristics.
The Age and Gender Prediction System is one such application. This project utilizes
OpenCV's deep neural network (DNN) module with pre-trained models to identify a
person's gender and estimate their age group from real-time video streams.
Literature Review

1. Overview of age and gender prediction research.

2. Existing methods in computer vision for real-time prediction.

3. Analysis of pre-trained models for facial recognition and classification.

4. Applications in security, marketing, and personalization.


System Design The system architecture consists of three main components:

1. Face Detection:

o Uses OpenCV's pre-trained face detection model


(opencv_face_detector_uint8.pb) with associated configuration
(opencv_face_detector.pbtxt).

2. Age Prediction:

o Employs a deep learning model (age_net.caffemodel) trained on labeled age


group datasets, configured using age_deploy.prototxt.

o Age groups include: (0-2), (4-6), (8-12), (15-20), (25-32), (38-43), (48-53),
(60-100).

3. Gender Prediction:

o Utilizes a deep learning model (gender_net.caffemodel) trained for binary


classification (Male/Female), configured using gender_deploy.prototxt.

Methodology

1. Data Processing:

o The video frames are captured using OpenCV and pre-processed to generate
blobs suitable for DNN inference.

o Face regions are extracted using the face detection model.

2. Prediction Pipeline:

o Extracted face regions are passed through the gender prediction model to
classify the gender.

o The same face regions are passed through the age prediction model to
determine the age group.

3. Output Display:

o The results (gender and age group) are overlaid on the video frames in real
time.
Implementation The project is implemented in Python using OpenCV and its DNN module.
Below are key implementation steps:

1. Loading Models:

faceNet = cv2.dnn.readNet(faceModel, faceProto)

ageNet = cv2.dnn.readNet(ageModel, ageProto)

genderNet = cv2.dnn.readNet(genderModel, genderProto)

2. Face Detection Function:

def faceBox(faceNet, frame):

blob = cv2.dnn.blobFromImage(frame, 1.0, (300, 300), [104, 117, 123],


swapRB=False)

faceNet.setInput(blob)

detection = faceNet.forward()

# Process detection...

3. Video Processing Loop:

while True:

ret, frame = video.read()

frame, bboxs = faceBox(faceNet, frame)

# Process bounding boxes for age and gender prediction


esults and Discussion The system successfully predicts the age group and gender of
individuals in real-time. Observations include:

 High accuracy under well-lit conditions.

 Decreased performance in low-light scenarios or with occluded faces.

 Gender predictions are reliable, while age predictions are approximate due to
overlapping age group boundaries.
Challenges and Limitations

1. Variability in lighting and camera angles.

2. Limited diversity in the training data for pre-trained models.


Conclusion and Future Scope This project demonstrates a practical application of
computer vision and deep learning in real-time age and gender prediction. Despite certain
limitations, the system performs well under favorable conditions and serves as a foundation
for further advancements.

Future Work:

1. Integrate larger and more diverse datasets for improved model accuracy.

2. Enhance the system with additional features like emotion detection.

3. Optimize the processing pipeline for deployment on low-resource devices.
