Overview of the proposed network architecture. It has three branches: two channel-specific networks (FiA-Netcon and FiA-Netmor, top and bottom paths in blue colors) provide channel-specific age estimation results, and one attention-driven fusion network (FiA-Netfus, middle path in orange) provides the final age estimation results. In channel-specific branches, the Resi(i = 1, 2, 3, 4) boxes are residual network blocks, and are the intermediate deep features of channel image mi after the ith residual block. In the fusion branch, the Fi boxes are the fusion blocks. GAP is the global average pooling.
