Face Recognition Systems in Math Classroom Through Computer Vision Traditional Techniques

Abstract

The methods and techniques of detection of the human face and facial recognition have presented a great impulse in recent years, thanks to the advance in areas such as artificial vision and machine learning. Although deep neural network techniques are in vogue, traditional techniques allow you to create applications that do not consume many resources from computing devices. In this research, we present a facial recognition system that implements the Eigenfaces method, developed in C # of Microsoft Visual Studio and open-source video processing libraries such as OpenCV as EmguCV. The application is divided into two sections: the first called register where, through an integrated camera, images of the user’s face or other means such as video and stored images are captured, and the second section is known as recognition where the user is compared with all the records of the data set, indicating whether this is registered and the recognition percentage. The project was implemented with a universe of the size of twenty-five users, of which six are men (24%) and nineteen are women (76%), developing tests for five weeks.
