Classification task on the human facial attribute is hard because of the similarities in between classes. For example, emotion classification and age estimation are two important applications. There are very little changes between the different emotions of a person and a different person has a different way of expressing the same emotion. Same for age classification. There is little difference between consecutive ages. Another problem is the image resolution. Small images contain less information and large image requires a large model and lots of data to train properly. To solve both of these problems this work proposes using transfer learning on a pre-trained model combining a custom loss function called Island Loss to reduce the intra-class variation and increase the inter-class variation. The experiments have shown impressive results on both of the application with this method and achieved higher accuracies compared to previous methods on several benchmark datasets.
