use tensorflow object detection API for gender recognition


can I use tensorflow object detection API for gender recognition? I want to train SSD_mobile net for gender recognition and detection. I changed labelmap to:

item {
  id: 1
  name: 'man'
}
item {
  id: 2
  name: 'woman'
}

and num_classes=2 I attach to training_loss=8 but when I feed an image to the network to test, the result is awful. what should I do? can somebody help me?


Solution

  • For this kind of task you will need a huge dataset and a very long time for training if you don't have a super computer haha jokes apart but this is pretty difficult we need very keen analysis because men or women has almost same kind of features for computer not for us but for computer just like it can not make a difference between a bitch and a dog but we human can by just one watch so I hope you will understand what I am trying to say but you should definitely try it its a very nice idea and there is a lot of applications for this if you can do some thing better with this. Good luck let me know if you can do some thing better.
