Age classification from facial images

Abstract
The ability to classify age from a facial image has not been pursued in computer vision. This research addresses the limited task of age classification of a facial image into a baby, young adult, and senior adult. This is the first reported work to classify age, and to successfully extract and use natural wrinkles. We present a theory and practical computations for visual age classification from facial images, based on cranio-facial changes in feature-position ratios, and on skin wrinkle analysis. Three age groups are classified.
