Publication number: 20230153409Abstract: In an authentication system, a storage unit of an authentication device constituting the authentication system stores an identification model in order to reduce a risk of leakage of personal information and shorten a response time of an authentication process. The identification model is a model generated by learning a feature amount extracted from biometric information of a registrant. A determination unit of the authentication device determines whether to authenticate a person to be authenticated based on a feature amount extracted from biometric information of the person to be authenticated using the identification model of the storage unit. A storage unit of a server constituting the authentication system stores the same identification model as the identification model used by the authentication device. An update unit of the server updates the identification model of the storage unit in response to a change of the registrant.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 11, 2021Publication date: May 18, 2023Applicant: NEC CorporationInventors: Yuka OGINO, Kosuke YOSHIMI, Takahiro TOIZUMI
