Mr Aleksandar vesovic defended his BSc thesis on the use of AI and HPC to develop a solution for attendance records in schools or universities. His mentors were Stevan Cakic and Tomo Popovic. He defended his theses on Friday, 28 March.
ABSTRACT – This thesis addresses the challenge of tracking student attendance in lectures through facial recognition. The aim of the research is to develop and implement a system that allows for automatic and accurate attendance tracking, thereby eliminating traditional methods that are often prone to errors and manipulation. The study analyzes the latest technologies in artificial intelligence, machine learning, and high- performance computing ( HPC) to achieve optimal accuracy and system efficiency. The implementation was tested on a sample of students and demonstrated high accuracy in facial recognition and attendance recording. This work also considers ethical aspects and p r ivacy concerns, given the sensitivity of the data collected and processed. The results suggest that applying facial recognition technology in an educational setting can significantly improve administrative processes while maintaining student security and privacy. Finally, possible future applications and recommendations for further system discussed.
