We present an algorithm for simultaneous face detection, landmarks localization, pose estimation and gender recognition using deep convolutional neural networks (CNN). The proposed method called, HyperFace, fuses the intermediate layers of a CNN separate followed by multi-task learning that operates on fused features. It exploits synergy among tasks which boosts up their individual performances. Additionally, we propose two variants HyperFace: (1) HyperFace-ResNet builds ResNet-101 model...

While the research community appears to have developed a consensus on methods of acquiring annotated data, design and training CNNs, many questions still remain be answered. In this paper, we explore following that are critical face recognition research: (i) Can train images expect systems work videos? (ii) Are deeper datasets better than wider datasets?

We propose a coarse-to-fine approach for estimating the apparent age from unconstrained face images using deep convolutional neural networks (DCNNs). The proposed method consists of three modules. first one is DCNN-based group classifier which classifies given image into groups. second module collection regressors compute fine-grained estimate corresponding in each class. Finally, any erroneous prediction corrected an error-correcting mechanism. Experimental evaluations on publicly available...
