My Contribution

01

Model Development

Integrated detection, alignment, feature extraction, and identity classification into one real-time pipeline.

02

System Testing

Tested recognition accuracy and processing speed across live-camera conditions.

03

Performance Analysis

Analysed evaluation results and identified improvements for recognition reliability.

Dataset

WIDER FACE · GLINT360K · AgeDB Database
Manual collection dataset · 416 face images of 25 people

System Pipeline

Live video frames pass through five processing stages before the system returns an identity prediction.

01

Live Camera Input

Capture continuous video frames from a connected camera.

02

Face Detection

Locate one or more faces in each frame using YuNet.

03

Face Alignment

Normalise detected faces using facial landmark positions.

04

Feature Extraction

Generate numerical face representations using a ResNet34 model.

05

Identity Classification

Match extracted features with registered identities using an SVM.

Project Outputs

A functional real-time facial recognition prototype for contactless attendance, capable of identifying multiple people from live camera input at approximately 30 FPS.
