Patent ID: 7653220

Claim:
A face image creation device for creating a first face image in which face parts for creating the first face image are respectively arranged at positions based on a position of a corresponding each of the face parts in a second face image, comprising: a reception unit operable to receive an input of the second face image; a position calculation unit operable to extract each of the face parts from the input second face image and calculate the position of each of the face parts in the second face image; a reference position storage unit storing a reference position of each of the face parts in a reference face image; a default position storage unit storing a default position of each of the face parts for creating the first face image in the first face image; and a position determining unit operable to determine the positions at which the face parts for creating the first face image are arranged, based on a comparison result between the calculated position of each of the face parts in the second face image and the reference position of a corresponding each of the face parts in the reference face image, and a comparison result of a distance between default positions with a distance between reference positions for particular two of the face parts.
