Attendance management in educational institutions remains a critical administrative challenge, with traditional manual and biometric methods being susceptible to proxy attendance, human error, and unhygienic physical contact. This paper presents an Adaptive Local Binary Pattern Histogram (Adaptive LBPH) framework for a real-time face recognition-based attendance system. Unlike conventional single-model LBPH approaches, the proposed methodology trains three LBPH classifiers concurrently using distinct radius values (R=1, R=2, R=3) with corresponding neighbor configurations (P=10, P=12, P=14), enabling multi-scale facial texture feature extraction. During real-time recognition, predictions from all three models are aggregated through a majority voting mechanism, followed by average confidence evaluation against a calibrated threshold (T=110). A frame-based stability validation module ensures attendance is marked only upon consistent recognition across three consecutive video frames, significantly mitigating false positives caused by lighting variation, motion blur, and occlusion. The system is implemented using Python, OpenCV, Tkinter, and MySQL, operating on standard CPU-based hardware without GPU support. Experimental evaluation demonstrates overall recognition accuracy in the range of 94–98% under normal classroom conditions, with effective unknown-face rejection (~95%) and reliable duplicate attendance prevention. The proposed system offers a computationally efficient, cost-effective, and practically deployable solution for real-time attendance automation in educational institutions.
