• Abstract: Age estimation is a technique for predicting human ages from digital facial images, which analyzes a person's face image and estimates his/her age based on the year measure. Nowadays, intelligent age estimation and age synthesis have become particularly prevalent research topics in computer vision and face verification systems. Age synthesis is defined to render a facial image aesthetically with rejuvenating and natural aging effects on the person's face. Age estimation is defined to label a facial image automatically with the age group (year range) or the exact age (year) of the person's face. In this case study, we overview the existing models, popular techniques, system performances, and technical challenges related to the facial image-based age synthesis and estimation topics. The main goal of this review is to provide an easy understanding and promising future directions with systematic discussions.

  The emergence of COVID-19 has had a global and profound impact, not only on society as a whole, but also on the lives of individuals. Various prevention measures were introduced around the world to limit the transmission of the disease, including face masks, mandates for social distancing and regular disinfection in public spaces, and the use of screening applications. These developments triggered the need for novel and improved computer vision techniques capable of (i) providing support to the prevention measures through an automated analysis of visual data, on the one hand, and (ii) facilitating normal operation of existing vision-based services, such as biometric authentication

  We first formulate a simple standard baseline and build a much strong one by collecting the tricks in pre-training, data augmentation, model architecture, and so on. Compared with the standard baseline, the proposed one significantly decreases the estimation errors. We propose a two-stage training method named Long-tailed Age Estimation (LAE), which decouples the learning procedure into representation learning and classification.

For face aging, we use an attribute-conscious face aging model with a pyramidal generative adversarial network that can model age-specific facial changes.
