Age estimation from digital contents is an interesting topic. Face image reading for age estimation is an intuitive way after classifying face images into several predefined age groups. Age estimation can be regarded as a multiclass problem due to the variation of given individuals determined by genes and several external factors. In the proposed scheme, we conducted an age range estimation with five predefined classes and combined several techniques of extracting estimation information from image data, such as Local Gabor Binary Patterns (LGBP) for filtering, Principle Component Analysis (PCA), Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA) for feature extraction, Support Vector Machines (SVM) for classification, as well as General Algorithm (GA) and Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) for optimization. Genetic Algorithm and Particle Swarm Optimization were used to find the most suitable parameters to carry out the SVM method. This work derives the results for both using optimization and without optimization. Experimental results show that our proposed hybrid method can raise the estimation accuracy compared to other schemes. The outcome of fold 3 is enhanced up to 14% for both GA and PSO, and the scheme with GA has diminished processing time up to 26s while it with PSO can reduce up to 25s.
