Implementation of Convolutional Neural Network Algorithm Using Vgg-16 Architecture for Image Classification in Facial Images

Abstrak

Abstract: Face Recognition has now become a technology capable of recognizing facial patterns, facial image recognition is also used in various applications, for example in biological data recognition applications, digital image and video search, room security, and other applications. Purpose: This study aims to find out how the implementation of the CNN method with the VGG-16 architecture affects the classification of gender in facial images and how it affects the results. Methods/Study design/approach: In this study, we use the CNN method for data processing and build the program and use VGG-16 Architecture to build the model, then the tensorflow library for calling the required features such as when optimizing or for statistical plots and using the Confusion Matrix to determine the level of accuracy obtained. The desired results in this study are accuracy, precision, recall, and Fscore. Result/Findings: Classifying facial images using CNN with VGG-16 architecture provides an accuracy rate of 94%. From the results of this study it can be concluded that the model with the best accuracy is at epoch 20 compared to epoch 60, epoch 80, and epoch 100 which have previously been tested. Novelty/Originality/Value: The level of accuracy resulting from the implementation of the CNN method using the VGG-16 Architecture for image classification in facial images is quite good, resulting in an accuracy of 94%. Accuracy results were obtained from tests carried out by comparing several epoch values to produce the best accuracy of 94% using epoch 20.
