Face recognition for presence system by using residual networks-50 architecture

Abstrak

Presence system is a system for recording the individual attendance in the company, school or institution. There are several types presence system, including the manually presence system using signatures, presence system using fingerprints and presence system using face recognition technology. Presence system using face recognition technology is one of presence system that implements biometric system in the process of recording attendance. In this research we used one of the convolutional neural network (CNN) architectures that won the imagenet large scale visual recognition competition (ILSVRC) in 2015, namely the Residual Networks-50 architecture (ResNet-50) for face recognition. Our contribution in this research is to determine effectiveness ResNet architecture with different configuration of hyperparameters. This hyperparameters includes the number of hidden layers, the number of units in the hidden layer, batch size, and learning rate. Because hyperparameter are selected based on how the experiments performed and the value of each hyperparameter affects the final result accuracy, so we try 22 configurations (experiments) to get the best accuracy. We conducted experiments to get the best model with an accuracy of 99%.
