Although significant advances in the field of computer vision are made, advanced face recognition systems provide satisfactory performance only in controlled conditions. They deteriorate significantly in the face of real-world scenarios such as lighting conditions, motion blur, camera resolution, etc. This article shows how we design, implement, and conduct the empirical comparisons of machine learning open libraries in building attendance taking (AT) support systems using indoor security cameras called ATSS. Our trial system was deployed to record the appearances of 120 students in five classes who study on the third floor of FPT Polytechnic College building. Our design allows for flexible system scaling, and it is not only usable for a school but a generic attendance system with CCTV. The measurement results show that the accuracy is suitable for many different environments.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/sym12020307","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,2,26]],"date-time":"2020-02-26T04:18:29Z","timestamp":1582690709000},"page":"307","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":19,"title":["Implementing CCTV-Based Attendance Taking Support System Using Deep Face Recognition: A Case Study at FPT Polytechnic College"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"12","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4098-3147","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Ngo Tung","family":"Son","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Information and Communication Technology Department, FPT University, Hanoi 100000, Vietnam"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3532-9434","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Bui Ngoc","family":"Anh","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Information and Communication Technology Department, FPT University, Hanoi 100000, Vietnam"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Tran Quy","family":"Ban","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Information and Communication Technology Department, FPT University, Hanoi 100000, Vietnam"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Le Phuong","family":"Chi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Information and Communication Technology Department, FPT University, Hanoi 100000, Vietnam"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Bui Dinh","family":"Chien","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Information and Communication Technology Department, FPT University, Hanoi 100000, Vietnam"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Duong Xuan","family":"Hoa","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Information and Communication Technology Department, FPT University, Hanoi 100000, Vietnam"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Le Van","family":"Thanh","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Information and Communication Technology Department, FPT University, Hanoi 100000, Vietnam"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Tran Quang","family":"Huy","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Information and Communication Technology Department, FPT University, Hanoi 100000, Vietnam"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7648-3545","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Le Dinh","family":"Duy","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Information and Communication Technology Department, FPT University, Hanoi 100000, Vietnam"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4717-7324","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Muhammad","family":"Hassan Raza Khan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Mathematical Department, University of Padova, 35100 Padova, Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,2,21]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","unstructured":"Minaee, S., Abdolrashidi, A., Su, H., Bennamoun, M., and Zhang, D.
