Whilst studies on emotion recognition show that genderdependent analysis can improve emotion classification performance, the potential differences in the manifestation of depression between male and female speech have yet to be fully explored. This paper presents a qualitative analysis of phonetically aligned acoustic features to highlight differences in the manifestation of depression. Gender-...

Face recognition is a biometric analysis tool that has enabled surveillance systems to detect humans and recognize humans without their co-operation. In this paper we evaluate the basics of the Principal Component Analysis (PCA) and verify the results of this algorithm on a training database of images. The same principle is in effect used to recognise the gender of the test image by evaluating ...

In this paper, we focus on performance comparison of gender and age group recognition to perform robot’s application services for Human-Robot Interaction (HRI). HRI is a core technology that can naturally interact between human and robot. Among various HRI components, we concentrate audio-based techniques such as gender and age group recognition from multichannel microphones and sound board equ...

The growth in electronic transactions and human machine interactions rely on the information such as gender, age, expression and ethnicity provided by the face image. In order to obtain these information, feature extraction plays a major role. In this paper, retrieval of age, gender, expression and race information from an individual face image is analysed using different feature extraction met...

Human beings can simultaneously recognize vowels in speech as well as gender of a speaker inspite of high variability. However, machines have not been able to simultaneously overcome both gender variability and vowel variability existing in speech due to gender. This paper uses a Multiple-Input Multiple-Output CoActive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System to recognize both these patterns in speech simu...

Biometrics is an advanced way of person recognition as it establishes more direct and explicit link with humans than passwords, since biometrics use measurable physiological and behavioural features of a person. In this paper gender recognition from human gait in image sequence have been successfully investigated. Silhouette of 15 males and 15 females from the database collected from CASIR site...

Folk psychology advocates the existence of gender differences in socio-cognitive functions such as 'reading' the mental states of others or discerning subtle differences in body-language. A female advantage has been demonstrated for emotion recognition from facial expressions, but virtually nothing is known about gender differences in recognizing bodily stimuli or body language. The aim of the ...

Background: Determining the genetic gender has been a human's inaccessible will during the history. Today science resolves the problem; pre implantation diagnosis (PGD) is used as a method of genetic disease diagnosis and gender determination. The holy Quran in many verses ascribes genetic gender determination and recognition to Allah, the Almighty. Hence, according to some, genetic gender...

one of the main goals of government is to increase economic growth and public welfare. therefore, the recognition of useful factors that facilitate achievement of this goal has critical role in economic literature. this study focuses on the effect of gender inequality on the reduction of economic growth and investigate whether gender inequality have significant effect on economic development an...
