Gender Classification for Anime Character Face Image Using Random Forest Classifier Method and GLCM Feature Extraction

Japan has many entertaining and unique artworks, especially its signature animation, called anime. Anime is an animation art that is unique in that the characterizations, characters, and storylines are made to resemble human life. The characters have 2 genders called male and female with unique visuals and are the characteristics of each anime character to entertain the audience. Training large-scale data and complex textures because not all of the anime images owned are of high quality, making classification by Machine Learning Algorithms low in accuracy. This study will describe an experiment using an anime face image dataset to classify the gender, namely male or female. From this problem, this research implements feature extraction to produce unique features of anime images with Gray-Level Cooccurrence Matrix (GLCM) and uses the Random Forest Classifier which is a classification algorithm in Machine Learning to classify gender. The results of this study get a good accuracy value of 95%, using 3,612 images where the test data used is 723 images and Homogeneity5 feature being the most relevant feature in increasing the accuracy value with a value of 0.06378389
