Abstract

Managing attendance and confirming student identity in online lessons is a contemporary problem of Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) that comes with its challenges, especially in classes with large numbers of students. The development and deployment of fully automatic and continuous image-based face verification techniques may provide a natural solution for this problem and assist instructors in handling the complexity of managing student identity in a remote classroom. In this paper, we present an automatic image-based student identification framework. Our approach proposes a biometric authentication platform using a Residual Network (ResNet) Learning method for face verification. The system described is intended for use with consumer grade web cameras, providing a tradeoff between reliability and computational performance, as no assumption can be done regarding the target student hardware (i.e. CPU or GPU). This follows from the case study of TRUSTID, an European R&D initiative for intelligent student identity management in distance learning scenarios.
