Abstract

A person recognizing apparatus inputs a face image of a person subject to recognition through a camera and obtains the similarity of this input face image with the registered information stored in the registered information memory pre-storing face images of recognized persons by collating them by the recognizer. Therefore, in this person recognizing apparatus to recognize a said person based on the obtained similarity, a registered information updating unit judges whether the similarity obtained by a recognizer is within a prescribed updating range and updates a registered information stored in the registered information memory based on the face image input by the camera based on being judged as the similarity is in the prescribed updating range.
