Abstract
Apparent age estimation via human face image has attracted increased attention due to its numerous real-world applications. Predicting the apparent age has been quite difficult for machines and humans. However, researchers have focused on machine estimation of "age as perceived" to a high level of accuracy. To further improve the performance of apparent age estimation from the facial image, researchers continue to examine different methods to enhance its results further. This paper presents a critical review of the modern approaches and techniques for the apparent age estimation task. We also present a comparative analysis of the performance of some of those approaches on the apparent facial aging benchmark. The study also highlights the strengths and weaknesses of each approach used for apparent age estimation to guide in choosing the appropriate algorithms for future work in the field. The work focuses on the most popular algorithms and those that appear to have been the most successful for apparent age estimation to improve on the existing state-of-the-art results. We based our evaluations on three facial aging datasets, including looking at people (LAP)-2015, LAP-2016, and APPA-REAL, the most popular and publicly available datasets benchmark for apparent age estimation.
