Does Face Recognition Error Echo Gender Classification Error?
This paper is the first to explore the question of whether images that are classified incorrectly by a face analytics algorithm (e.g., gender classification) are any more or less likely to participate in an image pair that results in a face recognition error. We analyze results from three different gender classification algorithms (one open-source and two commercial), and two face recognition algorithms (one open-source and one commercial), on image sets representing four demographic groups (African-American female and male, Caucasian female and male). For impostor image pairs, our results show that pairs in which one image has a gender classification error have a better impostor distribution than pairs in which both images have correct gender classification, and so are less likely to generate a false match error. 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 (increased false non-match rate) compared to individuals whose images all have correct gender classification. Thus, compared to images that generate correct gender classification, images that generate gender classification errors do generate a different pattern of recognition errors, both better (false match) and worse (false non-match).

How Does Gender Balance In Training Data Affect Face Recognition Accuracy?
Deep learning methods have greatly increased the accuracy of face recognition, but an old problem still persists: accuracy is usually higher for men than women. It is often speculated that lower accuracy for women is cau…
