Soft biometric prediction in surveillance systems faces significant challenges when attempting to maintain accuracy across varying subject distances. This research presents a novel transfer learning-based distance-adaptive approach for predicting global soft biometrics including age, gender, and ethnicity in surveillance environments. Using EfficientNetB3 with distance-adaptive multi-task deep learning, our method achieves robust performance across distances ranging from 4 meters to 10 meters.
