Facial age estimation using tensor based subspace learning and deep random forests
Résumé
Recently, the estimation of facial age has attracted much attention. This letter extends and improves a recently developed method (Guehairia et al., 2020) for fusing multiple deep facial features for age estimation. This method was based on deep random forests. We propose a new pipeline that integrates tensor-based subspace learning before applying DRFs. Deep face features of a training set are represented as a 3D tensor. Multi-linear Whitened Principal Component (MWPCA) and Tensor Exponential Discriminant (TEDA) are used to extract the most discriminative information. The tensor subspace features are then fed into DRFs to predict age. Experiments conducted on five public face databases show that our method can compete with many state-of-the-art methods.
