The stellar populations of 849 local infrared-selected galaxies from SDSS and IRAS (including 419 star-forming galaxies, 326 composite galaxies, 35 Seyfert 2s, and 69 LINERs in 4 spectral classes) are studied by using STARLIGHT. Among the 4 spectral classes, the importance of young populations decreases from star-forming, composite, Seyfert 2 to LINER; and Seyfert 2 and LINER are more metal-rich; ULIGs (ultra luminous infrared galaxies) & LIGs present the youngest populations among 3 infrared luminosity bins; and normal galaxies are more metal-rich. The dominant contributors to masses are all old populations.
