We can identify a person uniquely through his/her face. This physical feature can be used to develop a smart attendance system. Attendance management has become an essential part of an institution/college. However, it becomes tedious to manually mark the attendance and keep a track of students marking a proxy attendance for their friends. In order to increase the efficiency and security as well as to save time, we devised a smart attendance system. We intend to achieve this by using face recognition technology. We would store the images of every student in a database and then compare these images with the real-time frames detected from a video camera. In our work, we have implemented various algorithms such as Local Binary Pattern Histogram (LBPH), Eigenfaces and Fisherfaces for the purpose of face recognition in Attendance management.
