1. INTRODUCTION
The human eye is the vital part of the human visual system
which provides a threedimensional,movingimage,normally
colored in daylight. It also extracts some features from
different images that the decision is to be taken for what the
image is all about. Nowadays, the computer is being trained
in such a way that it can predict some specific result by
taking images as input which works like the human visual
system, hence it refers to as computer vision technology.
Computer vision technology can be defined as the science
and technology of the machines which are abletocollect and
analyze images or videos with the aim of extracting image
features from the processed visual data and concerned with
the theory behind artificial intelligence system. This system
seeks to apply its theories and models for implementation of
computer vision. In recent year the cameras are becoming
smart as they possess standard computer hardware and
required features like mobile devices. Computer vision is
useful tool to move toward wide range of applications with
the aims of different algorithms and frameworks such as
social media platforms, industrial robots, event detection,
image analysis (e.g. face recognition, medical image
analysis), information management systems as well asinput
for human-computer interaction devices.
This paper aims to review the Google’s cloud vision
technology which is used to compute the contents of the
images through powerful machine learning processes. This
solution permits users to extract some relevant information
from the visual data containing image labeling, face and
landmarks detection,optical characterrecognition(OCR). By
using the REST API, it is then easy to interact with Google’s
cloud vision platform, called Google Cloud Vision API. Inthis
paper we are going to exploit embedded system and
software resources in order to fulfill the gap of gender
detection for Google Cloud Vision technology. Here we
elaborate the design and real-time implementation of the
hardware as well as software solution we made byusinglow
cost Raspberry Pi 3 model B+ board with Pi Camera module,
which itself minicomputer like credit card size and like a
portable device. The following embedded system includes a
specialized software tool for image processing (e.g. python).
Afterward best facial features are to be introduced for
training and testing the dataset inordertoachieveimproved
gender detection performance rate for each of the dataset.
We propose that by learning representation throughtheuse
of convolutional neural network (CNN), there is sensual
increase in efficiency or say performance can beobtained on
this work. We show that despite the very challenging nature
of the images in the Audience dataset, the proposed method
outperforms existing innovation by substantial margins.
1.1 HISTORY
For the best outcome of noticeboard with the help of face
detection there are different work perform with unique
result with the help of different kind of database the all
method are depend on following reason :which type of face
feature use for the best result. we can access the number of
faces then we extract the face feature and create the feature
vector for a particular face then training and testing part
will be proceed.
1.2 BACKGROUND
H.D. Vankayalapati[6]has accommodate hiswork forfeature
classification using MATLAB based on support vector
machine(SVM)algorithm .for feature vector the facial edge
feature has carried out using Laplace of gaussiam filter to
determine the landmark position. For inputdata verification
the GTAV database is used. classification may be differ with
the human race is the major limitation of this work[6].to
ejection of this limitation the race and ethnicity elham
ariansab[7] the neural network –based classification
algorithm will be present for a face detection and reliability
is mainly based on feature vector value and facial features.

for the weakness of this system training and testing of on
whole database is presented to recognize the face using
neural network .
To resizing face image before and after alignment the
classification accuracy was also affected. [8] the Erno
Machine and Roope Raisamo[8] has developed four
fundamental gender detection method i.e. SVM[6], LBP,
Adaboost and neural network with their classification rate
and sensitive analysis for classifiers by varying notation,
scale and translation of the face image by using IMM face
database as well as FERET database the Gil Levi[5] present
the convolution neural network(CNN)
For a different face position, pixel resolution and size which
shows noticeable increase in performance of gender
classification rate. the Audience facedatasethasbeenuse for
training and testing particular dataset
Finally, for real time application purpose most preferable
and reliable board for gender detection system, raspberry
pi3 model B+ board and camera module has been used by
Davide Mulferi[2] for making and assistive technology
system by using Google cloud vision platform’s REST API to
process image as facial feature extraction in form of JSON
response[2][3]which is then used as a database for a
learning purpose
Similarly, we will conduct the same implementation using
cnn as well as raspberry pi platform which itself a mini
computer for a real time application to close the gap of
Google cloud vision technology.
2. RESULT AND ANALYSIS
Fig. 1. Raspberry Pi Camera Module
Fig. 1 shows the raspberry pi camera module whichhaspixel
resolutions of 2592 x 1944 pixel, connects by way of 15 pin
Ribbon Cable to dedicated 15 pin Camera Serial
Interface(CSI), specially design for camera module. This CSI
bus is capable of extremely high data rate. Raspberry pi
module weight is about 3g, dimension at 25mm x 20mm x
9mm, hence board itself is tiny and perfect about size and
weight, which is very important for mobile and other
applications.
Fig. 2. A Block Diagram.
An RGB image is captured through Raspberry Pi camera
module which is first scaled to 3 x 256 x 256 and then
cropped to 3 x 227 x 227. This cropping is further detailed in
the next session. Three convolutional layers and three fully
connected layers are described as follows.
1. 96 filters of size 3 x 7 x 7 pixels are applied to the input
image in the convolutional layer - 1 with 4 strides and zero
padding, resulting output of size 96 x 96 x 56, which is
followed by a ReLU, max-pooling to reduce the size to 96 x
28 x 28, and a Local Response Normalization (LRN).
2. The output of first is applied to convolutional layer - 2
with 256 filters of size 96 x 5 x 5 convolved with 1 stride and
2 padding, resulting output of size of 256 x 28 x 28. Which is
further followed by ReLU, max-pool and LRN, reducing the
output size to 256 x 14 x 14.
3. This second output is applied to convolutional layer - 3
with again 256 filters of size 256 x 3 x 3 are convolvedwith1
stride and 1 padding, resulting in an output of 256 x 7 x 7
sizes.
The fully connected layers are described as:
4. The first fully connected layers which receives the output
of third convolutional layer, has 512 neurons followed by a
ReLU and dropout layer.
5. The second fully connected layer of 512 neurons fully
connected to the 1 x 512 output of first fully connected layer
followed by a ReLU and dropout layer.
6. The final fully connected layer with 2 or 8 neurons fully
connected to the 1 x 512 output of second fully connected
layer which maps to final classes of gender detection.
The technical details relatedtoournetwork architecture and
trained model are elaborate as below:
Local Response Normalization (LRN):
The Local Response Normalizationlayersareusedhereafter
first two pooling layers which is used to help the
generalization of CNNs. The main reason behind LRN is for
introduction of lateral inhibition between the various filters
for the given convolution by making them “compete” for
large activations over particular segment of their input. This
affects to prevent repeated recording of the same
information. Here, if ai x, y is the activation of a neuron by

applying kernel i at position (x, y), then it’s LRN activationbi
x, y is as follows:
Here
Here, k, n, α, and β are the hyper-parameters. n is the
number of “adjacent” kernel filters. N is total numbers of
kernels in that given layer.
Soft max function:
Soft max function is used after the final fully connectedlayer
for which is used to compute the loss term and also used to
optimize during training and the class probabilities during a
classification. This function is also known as multinomial
logistic regression. Suppose we have zi, is the scoreassignto
class i after the final fully connected layer, then the soft max
function is defined as follows:
Because we want to maximize the log likelihood of the
correct class. Now here we have to minimizethenegative log
likelihood.
Because the softmax function is used to takes real-valued
score being output from f and normalizes them by their
exponentiated sum, it suggests that the sum of all softmax
scores is 1. It should be considered that the softmax loss is
actually a particular form of a cross- entropy between an
actual distribution p and an approximate distribution q is as
follows:
From this function we can see that softmax classifier is used
to minimize the cross-entropy which would look like one
predicted for actual class and zero predicted for everything
else.
Stochastic Gradient Descent:
After finding the loss, we need to require how to minimize it
in order to train an accurate classifier. For this experiment
we are going to optimize this by using Stochastic Gradient
Descent function. For this function first, we need to know
about gradient which is basically derivative of loss function
with respect to all the variables/ weights. Then we will have
the direction alongwhichwecanmovetowardourminimum
loss most quickly by following the negative of the gradient
[8, 9]. Each of the time we will compute the gradient we take
a small step in the opposite direction an we re- evaluate the
loss, re-compute the gradient, and repeat. Hence, we will
decrease our loss function by repeating this process
iteratively therefore better its classification work.
Mathematically we can describe this as follows:
where η is the learning rate or also called the step size and
δwL is the gradient of the loss term with respect to the
weight vector w.
3. CONCLUSIONS
Google has developed an extraordinary computer vision
technology in the last year which has introduced a
specialized REST API also called Google Cloud VisionAPI. By
using this, Developer can remotely access in easy way to
process the content of face images in order to extract some
information from visual data with face and landmark data to
explore their work. In this paper we have discussed the real-
time application of gender detection to close the gap of
Google Cloud Vision technology which has given the facial
features only. But by using these features we have
elaborated our work in the direction of CNN for
implementation of genderdetectiontoaccuratelypredict the
class of given data (either male or female) on verycheapand
credit card sized processor Raspberry Pi board equipped
with camera module. We believe that this project is a very
innovative for the computer vision technology
