Title: I'm going insane comparing Pictriev to the new microsoft recognition
Post by: stephaniec on May 05, 2015, 05:27:17 PM
wow , I think my brain is about to explode.  I've been comparing the two face recognition sites and it's driving me bonkers. Pictriev genders me female all the time , but my age is way off. Microsoft genders me male, but when it does gender me female it gets my age right.

I'm hoping that someone makes a site that tells you which animal an uploaded photo more closely resembles. That I could have fun with...

I haven't messed around with Pictriev at all.  The microsoft one is weird....

Pretty much any picture I put in with my hair down = female.

Hair up = male.....

Same thing with my wife, and the ages are all over the map.  I think they still have some work to do with it tbh.

LOL that would be fun and scary (if I uploaded my picture) at the same time

I just know three face recognition sites that attempt to figure out both gender and age: skybiometry, pictriev and now thanks to your post, how-old.

Of those three, Pictriev is totally off IMO, both in gender and age. I get readings all over the place. Skybiometry is by far the most accurate. Very realistic in the gender guessing, but way off in the age part. How-old is a bit accurate too, apparently. But I prefer skybiometry because it even attempts to tell you how much female or male you look, in percentage, but unlike pictriev, it only mentions one gender and its percentage, not the two of them.

Now, what I would really like to find is a face recognition site that can tell you what kind of face you have (oval, heart-shaped, square,  round, oblong, pear, triangle, or combinations), because knowing exactly what kind of face one has, can help determine the most feminine hair style for one's particular face.
