Abstract

Researchers have shown more interest in soft biometrics area to fill the commination gaps between humans and machines with the growth of real-world application has increased day to day life. Soft-biometric consists of age, gender, ethnicity, height, facial measurements and etc. This paper contains a detail discussion about the contribution of the researchers in the area of gender classification and age estimation using neural networking. Most of the work is done using Convolutional neural networks and auto encoders. Various elements related to neural network model such as dataset, findings, calculative metrics and results are embraced for effortless interpretation of tabular correlation research. Finally, the authors summarize germane tasks for future various research aspects.
