Gender Classification Based on Geometry Features of Palm Image

الملخص EN

This paper presents a novel gender classification method based on geometry features of palm image which is simple, fast, and easy to handle.

This gender classification method based on geometry features comprises two main attributes.

The first one is feature extraction by image processing.

The other one is classification system with polynomial smooth support vector machine (PSSVM).

A total of 180 palm imageswere collected from 30 persons to verify the validity of the proposed gender classification approach and the results are satisfactory with classification rate over 85%.

Experimental results demonstrate that our proposed approach is feasible and effective in gender recognition.
