To improve a safety of a driving by a person of advanced age without imposing a burden on the driver.An age estimation device, based on a facial image photographed by a photographing device, estimates an age of a driver. An inattentiveness detection device sets conditions of detecting an inattentiveness to be laxer in order that it becomes easier to detect the inattentiveness as the driver's age rises. In the event that the driver's age is of an advanced age group, an obstacle detection warning unit accelerates a timing of warning of an approximation to an obstacle, an other vehicle detection warning unit accelerates a timing of warning of an approximation to another vehicle, a cornering control unit, when the vehicle itself turns right, controls a cornering in such a way that the vehicle itself passes through a trajectory outside a normal one, and a left and right check warning unit gives a warning when the driver does not make a left and right check at an intersection. The invention can be applied to a driving support apparatus.

The present invention provides a method and system for conducting online publishing and advertising forums that offers two essential benefits to authors, especially independent authors: 1) providing a centralized Internet repository for authors of all backgrounds, proficiencies, expertise and age groups to publish their knowledge, ideas, work, thoughts and opinions on a wide range of topics and subjects; and 2) rewarding authors with a recurrent royalty drawn from the advertising revenue generated specifically by the articles they published. The collectively diverse and rich content of substance offered by these forums can ultimately boost the visibility and readership of individual articles, a goal difficult to achieve if they were published alone using the limited resources of individual authors. The recurrent nature of the royalty is another unique feature of the present invention such that authors may benefit from their publications financially for an extensively long period.

The present invention is a system and method for performing age classification or age estimation based on the facial images of people, using multi-category decomposition architecture of classifiers. In the multi-category decomposition architecture, which is a hybrid multi-classifier architecture specialized to age classification, the task of learning the concept of age against significant within-class variations, is handled by decomposing the set of facial images into auxiliary demographics classes, and the age classification is performed by an array of classifiers where each classifier, called an auxiliary class machine, is specialized to the given auxiliary class. The facial image data is annotated to assign the gender and ethnicity labels as well as the age labels. Each auxiliary class machine is trained to output both the given auxiliary class membership likelihood and the age group likelihoods. Faces are detected from the input image and individually tracked. Age sensitive feature vectors are extracted from the tracked faces and are fed to all of the auxiliary class machines to compute the desired likelihood outputs. The outputs from all of the auxiliary class machines are combined in a manner to make a final decision on the age of the given face.

The present invention includes a method and system for automatically extracting the multi-class age category information of a person from digital images. The system detects the face of the person(s) in an image, extracts features from the face(s), and then classifies into one of the multiple age categories. Using appearance information from the entire face gives better results as compared to currently known techniques. Moreover, the described technique can be used to extract age category information in more robust manner than currently known methods, in environments with a high degree of variability in illumination, pose and presence of occlusion. Besides use as an automated data collection system wherein given the necessary facial information as the data, the age category of the person is determined automatically, the method could also be used for targeting certain age-groups in advertisements, surveillance, human computer interaction, security enhancements and immersive computer games.
