Facial recognition, a secure biometric technique, typically requires large databases and is often outsourced by large companies. In recent years, effective attendance management systems have become progressively more important in organizations and schools. This research offers a novel Face Recognition Attendance Management System based on Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA). The suggested solution streamlines the attendance monitoring procedure by integrating cutting-edge image processing algorithms to reliably capture and recognize people in real time. This work aims to develop an in-house system for educational institutions, allowing student attendance to be recorded through facial recognition. Each student’s facial data is stored as 100 different images, with attendance records logged with precise timestamps. The first step of the system is to gather participant face pictures, which are then processed to improve quality and lower noise. Then, extract the most discriminative characteristics from the facial data using LDA, allowing for reliable identification in a variety of illumination and angle conditions. Following processing, the images are compared to a database that has been maintained, allowing for instant attendance tracking and identification. The initial outcomes showcase the efficacy of the LDA-based methodology, attaining elevated levels of 98% accuracy in facial identification while drastically decreasing the duration needed for attendance documentation in contrast to conventional techniques. This solution improves security and accountability while reducing human error. Institutions may concentrate more on operational effectiveness and educational outcomes by automating the attendance process. The practical implications of this research, adopting an LDA-based face recognition system, streamlines attendance management, bolsters security, and offers a user-friendly experience, making it a valuable tool for modern organizational operations.
