Systems and methods for inferring gender by fusion of multimodal content
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A system, comprising:
- a set of visual and textual classifiers for recognizing semantic concepts in a set of images and assigning semantic scores for the images to predict a gender of a user, and performing gender prediction from visual content and textual content in the images to respectively generate visual-based gender predictions and textual-based gender predictions; and
a multimodal information fusion device for combining, using multimodal information fusion, the visual-based gender predictions, the textual-based gender predictions, and the semantic scores to infer a gender of a user.

Abstract
A method and systems are provided. A system includes a set of visual and textual classifiers for recognizing semantic concepts in a set of images and assigning semantic scores for the images to predict a gender of a user, and performing gender prediction from visual content and textual content in the images to respectively generate visual-based gender predictions and textual-based gender predictions. The system further includes a multimodal information fusion device for combining, using multimodal information fusion, the visual-based gender predictions, the textual-based gender predictions, and the semantic scores to infer a gender of a user.

9. A system for inferring gender, comprising:
-
a set of visual classifiers, each for recognizing visual content from a set of images associated with a user, assigning respective visual-based prediction confidence scores for each of the images based the recognized visual-based content, and at least one for generating a visual-based gender prediction of the user based on the respective visual-based prediction confidence scores for each of the images; a set of textual classifiers, each for recognizing textual content from the set of images, assigning respective textual-based prediction confidence scores for each of the images based the recognized textual content, and at least one for generating a visual-based gender prediction of the user based on the respective visual-based prediction confidence scores for each of the images; and a multimodal information fusion device for inferring a gender of a user selectively from the visual-based gender predictions, the textual-based gender predictions, the visual-based prediction confidence scores and the textual-based prediction confidence scores. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11)
