The present research aims to design a model for the creation and development of knowledge-based cooperative companies in Semnan province by a mixed qualitative-quantitative approach. The qualitative approach was based on grounded theory and the quantitative approach was based on structural equation analysis. In terms of purpose, this research is an applied study, and in terms of method, it is a descriptive survey study. The population includes the knowledge-based companies of Semnan province. Out of the mentioned data collection was done by library studies and semi-structured interviews in the qualitative phase and questionnaire in the quantitative phase. In the qualitative phase, the factors and the data obtained from the interviews were analyzed by Atlas. ti8 and grounded theory coding proposed by Strass and Corbin. The components and indicators of the creation and development of knowledge-based cooperative companies were identified on this basis. In the quantitative phase, Lisrel software and IBM SPSS statistics. The 26 software were used to apply the interpretive structural equation for developing the final research model. The findings include the indicators of components of creation, and development of knowledge-based cooperative companies in Semnan province and the model proposed for this purpose. The most important of these components: education and research, technology, management strategies and policy-making, new platforms and infrastructures, expansion of knowledge application, knowledge-based innovation and creativity.

Face Recognition has received a great deal of attention over the past few years and has become one of the most researched and spoken topics. It is a kind of automated biometric distinguishing approach that recognizes an individual based on their facial characteristics. The main aim of face reorganization is to implement the system for a particular face and distinguish it from a large number of stored faces with some real-time variations as well. Face recognition is in trend these days, the main reason being its efficiency and vast applications in day to day life. *Most* all the Telecom companies provide an option to unlock the phones by recognizing the face, which is a time saver and gives protection from theft as well. There are many more such applications of this technique that will be discussed in this paper along with the methods used for face recognition.
