Abstract: A face recognition apparatus comprising: a database that stores face information mapped to each corresponding user; a face recognition unit configured to recognize the face information of a user; a user management unit configured to classify the face information into groups of the users of which the face information is not similar between one another so that the users having the similar face information does not fall within the same groups to store the classified face information in the database.

Abstract: A method for a face recognition by a face recognition service server, includes receiving a face image that is photographed from a face registration terminal or a face recognition terminal; detecting a face area of the received face image; and quantifying at least one quality factor for the detected face area in order to determine whether the received face image is suitable as sample image required for face recognition. Further, the method includes selecting the received face image as the sample image required for the face recognition when the quality factor satisfies a predetermined quality criterion.

Abstract: An apparatus for identifying a fake face is provided. A first eye image acquirer acquires a first eye image by taking a picture of a subject while radiating a first ray having a first wavelength. A second eye image acquirer acquires a second eye image by taking a picture of the subject while radiating a second ray having a second wavelength that is shorter than the first wavelength. A controller extracts a first area and a second area having brighter lightness than the first area from each of the first and second eye images, calculates a lightness of the first area and a lightness of the second area in the first eye image, and a lightness of the first area and a lightness of the second area in the second eye image, and determines whether the subject uses a fake face based on the calculated lightness.
