Abstract
The quality of biometric information that will be input the next time is estimated. Estimated matching quality information is calculated which indicates the degree of matching between estimated quality information and quality information of the actually input biometric information. Further, past quality information is calculated which indicates how the quality of a plurality of pieces of estimated matching quality information varied in the past. Then, whether or not the biometric information is to be registered is determined according to the estimated matching quality information and the past quality information.
Claims10
A biometric information registration device, comprising:
- an input device;
- and
- a processor, wherein
- the input device configured to input biometric information,
- the processor configured to calculate quality information of the biometric information which is inputted by the input device,
- the processor configured to estimate quality of biometric information that will be inputted a next time, according to the quality information calculated by the processor,
- the processor configured to calculate estimated matching quality information which indicates a degree of matching between estimated quality information estimated by the processor and quality information of next biometric information calculated by the processor,
- the processor configured to calculate past quality information which indicates how quality of a plurality of pieces of estimated matching quality information varied in the past,
- the processor configured to determine whether or not the biometric information is to be registered according to the estimated matching quality information and the past quality information, and
- the processor configured to register the biometric information when the processor determines that the biometric information is to be registered.
A method for registering biometric information, the method comprising:
- inputting biometric information by using an input device;
- calculating quality information of the inputted biometric information;
- estimating quality of biometric information that will be inputted a next time according to the calculated quality information;
- calculating estimated matching quality information which indicates a degree of matching between estimated quality information estimated by the estimating and quality information of next biometric information;
- calculating past quality information which indicates how quality of a plurality of pieces of estimated matching quality information varied in the past;
- determining whether or not the biometric information is to be registered according to the estimated matching quality information and the past quality information;
- and
- registering the biometric information according to a result of determination.
