Now a day’s most of the education system introduces the concept of smart classroom which involves the smart attendance system. In this project we are going to describe the student attendance system with face recognition that uses the machine learning algorithms like haar cascade algorithm and local binary pattern histogram LBPH algorithm. This project contains two main parts of attendance system that is face detection and face recognition. In this proposed system we use the OpenCV library along with python that provides various functions or algorithms related face recognition. The main objective of this project is to make the attendance management system reliable, efficient, simple, time saving and easy. 

Key Words:- machine learning, haar cascade, LBPH, face detection, face recognition, OpenCV, python, attendance.
