Abstract
Latest studies done on huge data collected from aging features proved that the performance of facial image based age estimation is low and need to be improved. One of the significant biometric traits for human recognition or search is Human age. Age assessment is very much exigent over other pattern recognition problems since the aging differs from person to person. This paper proposes a new framework that uses periocular region for age feature extraction and application of hybrid algorithm for age recognition. Firstly, preprocessing and periocular region normalization is done to acquire age invariant features. Secondly, the periocular region that underwent preprocessing is analyzed using hybrid approach, a novel machine algorithm that combines both SVM and kNN. The proposed technique generates the best recognition outputs.
