Abstract:
The present invention contributes to decreasing false recognition due to the lighting environment. A facial recognition apparatus comprises a photographing parameter input unit that receives a photographing parameter(s); a lighting information estimation unit that estimates lighting information based on the photographing parameter(s); and a recognition accuracy control unit that controls a recognition accuracy parameter(s) based on the lighting information.

Claim (Index 1):
A facial recognition apparatus connected to a photographing apparatus that includes an illuminance sensor and captures an image of a target, comprising:\n a memory that stores instructions; and at least one processing device coupled to the memory, the at least one processing device being configured to execute the instructions to: receive an output value of the illuminance sensor from the photographing apparatus; estimate lighting information based on the output value of the illuminance sensor; determine, without using the image of the target, a recognition accuracy threshold that is used upon determining a result of recognition, based on the lighting information; and after obtaining the image of the target from the photographing apparatus, perform recognition of the target from the image of the target in accordance with the recognition accuracy threshold.
