Face Mortality Prediction
This space hosts an XGBoost model that predicts life expectancy based on facial features and age.
Model Information
- Model Type: XGBoost
- Feature Extraction: FaceNet (InceptionResnetV1)
- Input Features: Face image (converted to 4096-dim embedding) + age
- Output: Predicted years until death / life expectancy
Important Disclaimer
⚠️ This is a research model and should NOT be used for medical decisions or life planning.
The model was trained on historical data from the IMDB-WIKI dataset and is intended for research purposes only.
How it Works
- Upload a clear, front-facing face photo
- Enter the person's current age
- The model extracts facial features using FaceNet
- XGBoost predicts the remaining years of life
- Life expectancy is calculated as current age + predicted years
Technical Details
- Face images are resized to 160x160 pixels
- FaceNet extracts 4096-dimensional feature vectors
- The model was trained without gender information (due to missing data)
- Cause of death features are padded with zeros for inference

If you use this model in research, please cite the original IMDB-WIKI dataset and the face mortality prediction work.
