Face Recognition Attendance System

Abstract— Face recognition is a biometric technique which involves determining if the image of the face of any given person matches with any of the face images stored in the database. This problem is very difficult to solve automatically due to the changes that various factors, such as facial expression, ageing and even lighting. It is widely used in areas such as security and access control, forensic medicine, police controls and attendance management system. Our Face Recognition Attendance System can utterly eliminate the manual work wherever the attending can now not involve any paperwork. This system will scale back the whole time required for attending marking. The system can acquire individual attending with the assistance of facial recognition to secure information accuracy of the attending. The primary goal of this project is to build a face recognition-based attendance monitoring system for employees working in an organization in order to improve and upgrade the current attendance system to make it more efficient and effective than before. The employee should be in an area containing light so that the detection can be clearly made.
