Identification of Lost Children using Face Aging with Conditional GAN

Face recognition technology is a big area that consists of the many features in it but it also comes with some of the factors which affect this technology, one of the factors is Face aging which makes face recognition more difficult. As in India, a large number of children go missing every year. Also just using a photograph is not enough for the process to proceed smoothly and it results in a huge percentage of the missing child cases remain untraced. This paper presents a novel use of face recognition with face aging to overcome the limitation of existing systems. The proposed system has a portal where the public can upload an image of a suspected child and also have a feature where searching for any lost child is possible. The proposed system has mainly concentrated on an Age Conditional generative adversarial network (C-GAN) algorithm for face aging and the FaceNet algorithm for face feature extraction and face recognition.
