arXiv:2605.29230v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Age estimation from facial images typically relies on training data that includes images of minors, a practice that raises serious ethical, legal, and privacy concerns. In this work, we propose a generalized zero-shot benchmark for facial age estimation that explicitly excludes children's data during training while still assessing model performance on younger populations. We revisit six widely used datasets and introduce standardized splits with strict age-group separation: samples aged 18-59 for training, validation, and testing; samples under
