MINI LAB REPORT
INTRODUCTION
This analysis aimed to compare male and female accuracy in facial recognition. This
study was conceived in light of previous studies suggesting that females had higher facial
recognition ability (Rehman & Herlitz, 2007), and it aimed to determine if this phenomena holds
true for online facial recognition tests. According to the research that was looked at, women have
been shown to do better than men on facial recognition tests (Rehman & Herlitz, 2007). It's
important to emphasize, though, that the vast majority of these experiments took place in stuffy
labs rather than the Internet. Because of this, the current study was developed to explore if the
same effect may be exhibited in an online environment. To achieve this, 90 volunteers, split
evenly between males and girls, took part in an online facial recognition experiment. Female
participants had much higher accuracy rates than male participants, supporting the notion that
women do better than men when it comes to online facial recognition tasks..
METHODS
PARTICIPANTS
Including the 45 male and 45 female participants, there were 90 people in all. Participants' ages
ranged from 18 to 30 and they were all chosen using an internet platform.
MATERIALS
In this study, we employed a facial recognition survey and an online facial recognition program.
In this experiment, participants were shown a sequence of photos of faces and asked to choose
the correct one from a list generated by facial recognition software. For statistical purposes, the
survey questionnaire included questions about the respondents' ages, genders, education levels,
This experiment included a two-step approach. The first step in the research process was for
participants to fill out the survey questionnaire and provide basic personal details. Then, they
were shown the results of the facial recognition program and told to pick the right person from
among the options. After finishing the assignment, students were asked for feedback on the
RESULTS
The results of the experiment showed that female participants had significantly higher
accuracy rates than male participants. Specifically, female participants had an accuracy rate of 8
out of 10 correct answers, compared to 6 out of 10 correct answers for male participants. These
results support the hypothesis that females outperform males in facial recognition tasks in an
online setting. This finding is in line with previous research that has shown that females tend to
have superior facial recognition abilities (Rehman & Herlitz, 2007). Furthermore, the results of
this experiment demonstrate that this phenomenon extends to online facial recognition
DISCUSSION
The results of this study demonstrate that when it comes to facial recognition tasks,
female individuals fared much better than male participants. Similar results have been found in
online facial recognition trials, supporting the idea that women generally have greater aptitude in
this area (Rehman & Herlitz, 2007). This indicates that gender differences in facial recognition
skills can be measured via online facial recognition activities, and that females may have an
the sample may prevent extrapolating the results to the entire population. Furthermore, the
photographs utilized in the experiment may have been more easily identifiable by female
participants, suggesting that the online facial recognition software may have been biased in favor
of female individuals. Thus, greater study into the reliability of facial identification in various
CONCLUSION
Overall, the results of this study show that females outperform males on the facial
recognition tasks used in an online setting. The findings of this study lend support to the idea that
women generally perform better than men in online facial recognition trials. However, further
study is required to determine how well various facial recognition systems work in various
settings. In conclusion, this study's findings provide light on the gender gap in facial recognition
