The traditional approach of student attendance monitoring system in Universiti Tun Hussein Onn Malaysia is slow and disruptive. As a solution, biometric verification based on face recognition for student attendance monitoring was presented. The face recognition system consisted of five main stages. Firstly, face images under various conditions were acquired. Next, face detection was performed using the Viola Jones algorithm to detect the face in the original image. The original image was minimized and transformed into grayscale for faster computation. Histogram techniques of oriented gradients was applied to extract the features from the grayscale images, followed by the principal component analysis (PCA) in dimension reduction stage. Face recognition, the last stage of the entire system, using support vector machine (SVM) as classifier. The development of a graphical user interface for student attendance monitoring was also involved. The highest face recognition accuracy of 62% was achieved. The obtained results are less promising which warrants further analysis and improvement.

Attendance is important for university students. However, generic way of taking attendance in universities may include various problems. Hence, a face recognition system for attendance taking is one way to combat the problem. This paper will present an automated system that will automatically saves student’s attendance into the database using face recognition method. The paper will elaborate on student attendance system, image processing, face detection and face recognition. The face detection part will be done by using viola-jones algorithm method while the face recognition part will be carried on by using local binary pattern (LBP) method. The system will ensure that the attendance taking process will be faster and more accurate.

Face is the representation of one’s identity. Hence, we have proposed an automated student attendance system based on face recognition. Face recognition system is very useful in life applications especially for attendance system. In our proposed approach, firstly, video framing is performed by activating the camera through a user-friendly interface. In the pre-processing stage, scaling of the size of images is performed, if necessary, in order to prevent loss of information. In face recognition stage, enhanced local binary pattern (LBP) and principal component analysis (PCA) is applied correspondingly in order to extract the features from facial images. Another way of marking the attendance is fingerprint recognition. To mark the attendance students simply have to give the fingerprint impression in fingerprint scanner module. Finally, the attendance of the recognized student will be marked and saved in the excel file. The student who is not registered will also be able to register on the spot and notification will be given if students sign in more than once. Whenever seminar is completed then a link is sent on email. It includes the information in terms of feedback. When student fills the feedback form then analysis of overall session is done.

In this chapter, we propose a pose variability compensation technique, which synthesizes realistic frontal face images from nonfrontal views. It is based on modeling the face via active appearance models and estimating the pose through a correlation model. The proposed technique is coupled with adaptive principal component analysis (APCA), which was previously shown to perform well in the presence of both lighting and expression variations. The proposed recognition techniques, though advanced, are not computationally intensive. So they are quite well suited to the embedded system environment. Indeed, the authors have implemented an early prototype of a face recognition module on a mobile camera phone so the camera can be used to identify the person holding the phone.


The most common difficulty that every teacher faces in class room is to take the attendance of the students one by one in each and every class. For the time being many automated systems has been proposed for taking student attendance. In this paper, I introduced an automated student attendance system based on the use of unique techniques for face detection and recognition. This system automatically detects the student when he or she enters the classroom and recognizes that specific student and marks the student's attendance. This method also focuses on the specific features of different attributes such as the face, eye and nose of humans. In order to evaluate the performance of different face recognition system, different real-time situations are considered. This paper also suggests the technique for handling the technique such as spoofing and avoiding student proxy. This system helps track students compared to traditional or current systems and thereby saves time.

Attendance system is very important in schools and colleges' The student attendance program has many problems such as it may not be accurate and critical to maintain. Therefore, an existing system that uses a face recognition system increases accuracy and also requires less time than other methods. There are many systems available such as face recognition using IoT, PIR sensors and so on. With face recognition, hardware devices are helpful. But the challenge is to keep all the nerves properly without getting hurt. After learning all the techniques and techniques we try to use the system with Haar Cascade Algorithm with the highest accuracy among them all. It can take pictures from 50- 70cm. We create a graphical interface that takes pictures, builds a database and trains the database with a single click. After seeing the face it will show the student's name and roll number. That information is stored on an automatic attendance sheet by time and date.

Face recognition can represent a key requirement in various types of applications such as human-computer interface, monitoring systems, as well as personal identification. In this paper, design and implement of face recognition system are introduced. In this system, a combination of principal component analysis (PCA) and wavelet feature extraction algorithms with support vector machine (SVM) and K-nearest neighborhood classifier is used. PCA and wavelet transform methods are used to extract features from face image using and identify the image of the face using SVMs classifier as well as the neural network are used as a classifier to compare its results with the proposed system. For a more comprehensive comparison, two face image databases (Yale and ORL) are used to test the performance of the system. Finally, the experimental results show the efficiency and reliability of face recognition system, and the results demonstrate accuracy on two databases indicated that the results enhancement 5% using the SVM classifier with polynomial Kernel function compared to use feedforward neural network classifier.

Face detection is the power to identify a face and recognition is the ability to recognize whose face it is by means of facial characteristics. Face is multivariate and requires a lot of mathematical summation. Almost all imperative applications use a face recognition system. There are many methods that have been already proposed which provides low recognition rate. Hence, the main task of research is to develop a face recognition system with higher recognition capability and better accuracy. This paper proposes Face recognition system by combining two techniques Viola Jones and Principal Component Analysis. An approach of Eigen faces is employed in Principle Component Analysis(PCA). The face recognition system is implemented in MATLAB.

This paper deals with video-based face recognition and tracking from a camera mounted on a mobile robot companion. All persons must be logically identified before being authorized to interact with the robot while continuous tracking is compulsory in order to estimate the person's approximate position. A first contribution relates to experiments of still-image-based face recognition methods in order to check which image projection and classifier associations give the highest performance of the face database acquired from our robot. Our approach, based on Principal Component Analysis (PCA) and Support Vector Machines (SVM) improved by genetic algorithm optimization of the free-parameters, is found to outperform conventional appearance-based holistic classifiers (eigenface and Fisherface) which are used as benchmarks. Relative performances are analyzed by means of Receiver Operator Characteristics which systematically provide optimized classifier free-parameter settings. Finally, for the SVM-based classifier, we propose a non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm to obtain optimized free-parameter settings. The second and central contribution is the design of a complete still-to-video face recognition system, dedicated to the previously identified person, which integrates face verification, as intermittent features, and shape and clothing color, as persistent cues, in a robust and probabilistically motivated way. The particle filtering framework, is well-suited to this context as it facilitates the fusion of different measurement sources. Automatic target recovery, after full occlusion or temporally disappearance from the field of view, is provided by positioning the particles according to face classification probabilities in the importance function. Moreover, the multi-cue fusion in the measurement function proves to be more reliable than any other individual cues. Evaluations on key-sequences acquired by the robot during long-term operations in crowded and continuously changing indoor environments demonstrate the robustness of the tracker against such natural settings. Mixing all these cues makes our video-based face recognition system work under a wide range of conditions encountered by the robot during its movements. The paper concludes with a discussion of possible extensions.

Human face is a complex and dynamic structure. It is a challenge to be able to make a face recognition system like humans. At the beginning of its development, many facial recognition studies only focused on facial features. In 1991, Turk and Pentland developed a face recognition system based on Principal Component Analysis named eigenface. This system is very efficient because it only focuses on components that most affect facial image. However, this system has weaknesses, which cannot be used to determine the position of the face. In this final project, image processing methods will be carried out to detect faces in digital images. The method used is eye mouth triangular approach with the steps being taken are skin detection, eye detection, mouth detection, and facial confirmation. From the results of a hundred digital color images tested, there were 82 images that were successfully detected. The main system failure is caused by failure in skin detection. Further development is needed so that the system can work optimally.
