• Title: ArcFace Knows the Gender, Too!
• Authors: Majid Farzaneh
• Abstract summary: Instead of defining a new model for gender classification, this paper uses ArcFace features to determine gender. Discriminative methods such as Support Vector Machine (SVM), Linear Discriminant, and Logistic Regression well demonstrate that the features extracted from the ArcFace create a remarkable distinction between the gender classes.

• Abstract: The main idea of this paper is that if a model can recognize a person, of course, it must be able to know the gender of that person, too. Therefore, instead of defining a new model for gender classification, this paper uses ArcFace features to determine gender, based on the facial features. A face image is given to ArcFace and 512 features are obtained for the face. Then, with the help of traditional machine learning models, gender is determined. Discriminative methods such as Support Vector Machine (SVM), Linear Discriminant, and Logistic Regression well demonstrate that the features extracted from the ArcFace create a remarkable distinction between the gender classes. Experiments on the Gender Classification Dataset show that SVM with Gaussian kernel is able to classify gender with an accuracy of 96.4% using ArcFace features.

  Face recognition systems exhibit significant accuracy differences based on the user's gender. We propose a toolchain to effectively decorrelate and aggregate facial attributes to enable a less-biased gender analysis. Experiments show that the gender gap vanishes when images of male and female subjects share specific attributes.

  VisoGender is a novel dataset for benchmarking gender bias in vision-language models. We focus on occupation-related biases within a hegemonic system of binary gender, inspired by Winograd and Winogender schemas. We benchmark several state-of-the-art vision-language models and find that they demonstrate bias in resolving binary gender in complex scenes.

  We investigate possible bias in the domain of face detection through facial region localization. Most existing face detection datasets lack suitable annotation for such analysis. We observe a high disparity in detection accuracies across gender and skin-tone, and interplay of confounding factors beyond demography.

  We first demonstrate that female and male hairstyles have important differences that impact face recognition accuracy. We then demonstrate that when the data used to estimate recognition accuracy is balanced across gender for how hairstyles occlude the face, the initially observed gender gap in accuracy largely disappears.

We also compare the original VoxCeleb gender labels with our labels to identify records that might be mislabeled in the original VoxCeleb data.

  We analyze results from three different gender classification algorithms, and two face recognition algorithms. For impostor image pairs, our results show that pairs in which one image has a gender classification error have a better impostor distribution. For genuine image pairs, our results show that individuals whose images have a mix of correct and incorrect gender classification have a worse genuine distribution.

Using this fine-grained framework, we automatically annotate eight large scale datasets with gender information.
