  • Publication number: 20230049715
    Abstract: An apparatus and a method with image recognition-based security are disclosed. The method includes, for an unlocked terminal, tracking a face detected in a previous frame, detecting a background region change between the previous frame and a current frame based on a region of the tracked face, when the background region change is not detected, determining whether a state maintenance time fails to meet a preset time, in response to the state maintenance time failing to meet the preset time, determining an operation mode to be a first operation mode for determining whether recognition succeeds for the current frame, performing the first operation mode, including performing face detection with respect to the current frame, and maintaining the unlocked state of the terminal for the current frame when the face is detected as a result of the performing of the face detection, representing that the recognition succeeded for the current frame.

  • Patent number: 11527100
    Abstract: A method and apparatus with fingerprint verification are disclosed. A processor implemented method includes obtaining a query fingerprint image through a fingerprint sensor, obtaining a processed fingerprint image by performing image processing on the obtained query fingerprint image, obtaining a blended fingerprint image by blending the query fingerprint image and the processed fingerprint image, and performing fingerprint verification based on the blended fingerprint image and a registered fingerprint image.

  • Patent number: 10719690
    Abstract: A method for processing fingerprint information may include obtaining an input image corresponding to at least a region of a user fingerprint, searching a memory storing at least one registered image for a reference registered image that matches the input image at least partially, determining a unique region of the input image in which the input image does not overlap with the reference registered image when the input image is aligned with the reference registered image, and, in response to a score of the unique region of the input image being greater than or equal to a predetermined reference score, classifying the input image as belonging to a same group as the reference registered image and storing the input image in the memory.

  • Patent number: 10509943
    Abstract: A method for processing fingerprint information includes dividing an input image that corresponds to at least a portion of a user fingerprint into a plurality of first regions; dividing a registered image that had previously been stored into a plurality of second regions; selecting a first matching region from among the plurality of first regions, and selecting a second matching region from among the plurality of second regions, by comparing the plurality of first regions with the plurality of second regions; and matching the registered image with the input image by comparing the first matching region with the second matching region.
