Image classification of Human Face Shapes Using Convolutional Neural Network Xception Architecture with Transfer Learning

Abstrak

Abstract. The development of information technology in facial recognition is influenced by a faster and more accurate authentication system. This allows the computer system to identify a person's face. Purpose: Similar to fingerprints and the retina of the human eye, each person's face has a different shape and contour. Since it is known that the human face provides a lot of information, as well as topics that attract attention make it studied intensively. Methods/Study design/approach: Several studies examining information from human faces are facial recognition. One of the approaches used to recognize facial imagery is through the use of a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN). CNN is a method in the field of Deep Learning that can be used to recognize and classify objects in digital images. In this study, the method used to implement facial image classification is the Xception architecture CNN algorithm with a transfer learning approach. Result/Findings: The dataset used in this study was obtained from Kaggle, namely the Face Shape Dataset which contains 5000 data. After testing, an accuracy rate of 96.2% was obtained in the training process and 81.125% in the validation process. This study also uses new data to test the model that has been made, and the results show an accuracy rate of 85.1% in classifying facial imagery. Novelty/Originality/Value: Therefore, it can be said that the model created in this study has the ability to classify images of facial shapes Human Face Shapes Using Convolutional Neural Network Xception Architecture with Transfer Learning.
