Abstract: A customer management apparatus (10) includes an acquisition unit (110) and a determination unit (120). The acquisition unit (110) acquires, from a registration terminal (20), first face information and card identification information. When the first face information satisfies a first criterion regarding whether authentication is possible, the determination unit (120) causes a storage unit (130) to store the first face information and the card identification information in association with each other (first registration processing), and performs processing for allowing a customer to enter a store. The processing may be, for example, issuing, to a store entry apparatus (40), a command to open an automatic door, or may be issuing, to the store entry apparatus (40), a command (so-called lock releasing) to cause an automatic door to open when the customer stands in front of the automatic door.

Abstract: A first analysis unit (202) acquires second image data. The second image data is generated by compressing first image data by a predetermined encoding method. Further, the first analysis unit (202) performs image analysis of the acquired second image data to detect second image data satisfying a first predetermined condition. A decoding unit (204) decodes second image data detected by the first analysis unit (202) into third image data having higher resolution than that of the second image data. In the second analysis (206), the image analysis of the third image data is performed.
