Age invariant face recogntion system using automated voronoi diagram segmentation

One of the challenges in automatic face recognition is to achieve sequential face invariant. This is a challenging task because the human face undergoes many changes as a person grows older. In this study we will be focusing on age invariant features of a human face. The goal of this study is to inv...
