Abstract: An authentication system performs authentication using a challenge-response scheme. A first device, when receiving an authentication request from a second device, sends challenge data. The second device performs function computation using the challenge data and key information possessed by itself to generate data with a data length Ha longer than a payload length L. The second device generates response data with a data length Hb shorter than or equal to the payload length L using a predetermined conversion rule, and sends the response data to the first device. The first device performs function computation using the challenge data and key information possessed by itself to generate data with the data length Ha. The first device generates data D1 with the data length Hb from the data with the data length Ha using the conversion rule. The first device checks the response data with the data D1 to perform authentication.

Abstract: To make it possible to significantly reduce a burden on a user at a time of a classification of image files added or updated, for example, and thus facilitate association with other content data. An image detector/register (20) detects an image file that is unregistered or updated, and structures and manages a list of the image files. A face rectangular detector (21) detects a face rectangle in the image files detected, associates information on the face rectangle with the image file, and stores the information. A similar face classification section (22) calculates an amount of feature of the face rectangle, compares the amount of feature calculated with amounts of feature of different face rectangles already calculated and classified into groups, calculates a similarity between the face rectangle and the face rectangles of the different face rectangles in the respective groups, and classifies and manages the face rectangles in accordance with a result of the similarity calculation.
