Research on age estimation witnessed increasing attention due to the demand for its applications. The age estimation has an essential role in preventing under-age persons from performing adult activities. The proposed age estimation technique is carried out through several stages; preprocessing, feature extraction and then age classification. In this paper, the Local Binary Pattern (LBP) algorithm is adopted to extract the face features focusing on selecting the best possible combination among all the features produced from the LBP algorithm. Feature Selection Method (FSM) is employed to increase the accuracy. FSM yields better results compared to other techniques’ results. Support Vector Machine (SVM) is used to classify the tested person image and assign that person to the related age. Results conducted using MATLAB produced accuracy of 93.81% with FSM technique compared to 81.61% without it. When damaged images are excluded from the database used for training, the accuracy is increased to 94.57%.

In the present information age, providing correct information to the query with a limited concept is a challenging task. The modern adaptive Information Retrieval (IR) system is needed to provide valid information. Ontology-based on IR can provide a better solution. Ontology is a perception of shared conceptualization, represented by classes, properties, and objects. Ontology mapping offers a solution to integrate inter-domain knowledge. This paper presents a method for using ontologies to handle inter-domain query in information retrieval. Using ontology in IR for Query Expansion (QE) and document ranking seems to be the ultimate goal. The Multi-Domain Specific Ontology Mapping (MDOM) proposes the concepts derived from ontology for query expansion and information retrieval. The result shows the improvement in terms of better document ranking.
