METHOD AND COMPUTING DEVICE FOR GENDER RECOGNITION BASED ON LONG DISTANCE VISIBLE LIGHT IMAGE AND THERMAL IMAGE

摘要

A method of recognizing gender processed by a computer system, comprising the steps of: (a) receiving a visible light image acquired by a remote visible light camera and a thermal image acquired by a remote thermal imaging camera with respect to the same subject; (B) detecting a body region from the visible light image and the thermal image, respectively; (C) acquiring a unit feature vector for each of the sub-blocks within the body region, and combining the obtained feature vectors for each block to generate an integrated histogram feature vector for the body region; And (d) calculating a gender score corresponding to the integrated histogram feature vector using a predetermined machine learning algorithm, combining the gender scores calculated for the visible light image and the thermal image to output a gender determination result A gender recognition method is provided.;
