Abstract

Face detection and recognition methods have enhanced a lot in the last decade in terms of accuracy, speed, and overall performance. This development has completely changed many systems. Attendance management is one example of this change. Earlier, the pen-paper-based method was used for marking and storing attendance. The improvement in biometric detection and recognition methods has resulted in the possibility to build a complete automated attendance management system. Face recognition based methods for attendance management has many advantages over the traditional attendance methods. The main challenge with the face recognition based method for attendance is to ensure that it recognizes every detected face. In this paper, previous works of several authors on face recognition based attendance management systems have been discussed, and a comparative study has been performed between the works. This paper shows that the need for cost-effective and network independent face recognition based attendance system having high accuracy still exists.
