Abstract

The devastating effect of COVID-19 ensued the closing of educational institutes throughout the world and led to a shift in the education mode from offline to online. Online exams became the new way of testing the academic knowledge of a student. The major concern which arises in an online exam is the apparent risk of malpractices emerging due to the remote invigilation. Therefore, cheating in online exams is widespread regardless of the levels of development. In this paper, our main goal is to propose a smart system which can automatically detect cheating in online exam. For this, the students’ webcam is used to perceive his/her eye-gaze and head-pose. Based on the analysis of eye-gaze and head-pose, we have followed the students’ intension to indulge in cheating.
