Gender recognition from mobile biometric data
Margit Antal, Győző Nemes · 2016
This paper investigates gender recognition from keystroke dynamics data and from touchscreen swipes. Classification measurements were performed using 10-fold cross-validation and leave-one-user-out cross-validation (LOUOCV). We show that when the target is unseen user data classification, only the second approach is viable. Based on our limited datasets, we show that gender cannot be reliably predicted. The best results were 64.76% for the keystroke dataset and 57.16% for the swipes dataset. However, the classification accuracy is over 80% for more than half of the users in the case of keystroke dynamics dataset.
