Abstract

An example collation apparatus includes a user information storage medium and processing circuitry. The processing circuitry is configured to at least receive a captured image including a face of a user and a non-facial object; detect a face region from the image; set an object region corresponding to the location of the non-facial object in the image; extract a face feature vector from the face region and collate the extracted face feature vector with face feature vectors stored in the user information storage medium; extract an object feature vector from the object region and collate the extracted object feature vector with object feature vectors stored in the user information storage medium; and calculate a collation result of the user using at least one of a collation result of face feature vectors and a collation result of object feature vectors.
