Sex Classification of Face Areas

1998

Human subjects and an artificial neural network, composed of an autoassociative memory and a perceptron, gender classified the same 160 frontal face images (80 male and 80 female). All 160 face images were presented under three conditions (1) full face image with the hair cropped (2) top portion only of the Condition 1 image (3) bottom portion only of the Condition 1 image. Predictions from simulations using Condition 1 stimuli for training and testing novel stimuli in Conditions 1, 2, and 3, were compared to human subject performance. Although the network showed a fair ability to generalize learning to new stimuli under the three conditions, performing from 66 to 78% correctly on novel fa…
