Abstract
A method for processing fingerprint information may include obtaining an input image corresponding to at least a region of a user fingerprint, searching a memory storing at least one registered image for a reference registered image that matches the input image at least partially, determining a unique region of the input image in which the input image does not overlap with the reference registered image when the input image is aligned with the reference registered image, and, in response to a score of the unique region of the input image being greater than or equal to a predetermined reference score, classifying the input image as belonging to a same group as the reference registered image and storing the input image in the memory.
