Face images contain valuable information for biometric recognition. Gender, age, and race can be extracted from faces, raising privacy concerns. GDPR regulates data usage, limiting information extraction without consent. Previous work used SAN to confound gender extraction from faces. We propose a gender detection system based on VGG19 for facial images, ensuring privacy. Our system integrates with OpenCV for real-time gender classification from webcam images. Experiments show improved gender detection while preserving face matching utility. This system addresses privacy concerns in biometric applications. Gender recognition from faces, a key human ability, is gaining interest for machine applications. It's used in social robotics and digital signage for personalized interactions and targeted advertising. Real-world applications require in reliable performance under challenging conditions, such as varying lighting and poses. Running gender recognition on embedded devices, like robots or cameras, is challenging due to limited resources. This paper proposes a deep learning architecture, based on Mobile Net v2, optimized for gender recognition. The network is designed to balance accuracy and speed, making it suitable for real-time applications on embedded devices with limited resources.

1.INTRODUCTION

Crucial biometric task with applications in various fields, often studied using different modalities. Facial modality, being universal and acceptable, is widely used. Deep learning has greatly improved gender classification, surpassing traditional methods. However, the need for large training datasets raises privacy concerns when using real images. To address this, we investigate the use of fake data generated by GANs for training, focusing on privacy and data augmentation. This paper presents a new approach using Deep fake faces for training CNNs, evaluated on real datasets. Additionally, we offer a substantial dataset of over 200,000 deep fake faces to facilitate further research in this domain. The deep learning model is trained on a large dataset of labeled facial images to learn gender-specific features. Integration with Open CV enables the system to capture real-

Gender classification from facial images is a crucial task in computer vision with numerous applications such as security, marketing, and human-computer interaction. The goal is to automatically determine the gender of a person from an image and open CV. This study presents a facial image-based gender classification system that utilizes a deep learning model for efficient and accurate gender prediction. Deep learning models, such as convolutional neural networks (CNNs), are particularly well-suited for this task because they can automatically learn complex patterns and features from raw image data. These models can be trained on large datasets of labeled facial images to effectively distinguish between male and female faces. The proposed system leverages convolutional neural networks (CNNs) to
