Information processing device and information processing method
View Patent ↗An information processing device comprises: an acquisition unit that acquires an image which includes a facial image region and in which an image of a person who goes into a gate is captured from the direction from the exit to the entrance; a processing unit that performs a second facial authentication process for a person for whom a first facial authentication process has been successful, the first facial authentication process being based on a first image captured in a first area, and the second facial authentication process being based on a second image captured in a second area between the exit of the gate and the first area; and an output unit that, when the person for whom the first facial authentication process has been successful and a person in the second image are determined to be identical, outputs that the person has passed through the gate.
1 . An information processing apparatus, comprising:
a processor configured to receive an image of a person entering a gate, the image being captured by a camera in a direction from an exit of the gate toward an entrance of the gate and including a face image region, wherein
the processor performs a second face authentication process on the person who has been successful in a first face authentication process, the first face authentication process being based on a first face image region in a first image captured in a first area defined for the gate, the second face authentication process being based on a second face image region in a second image captured in a second area defined between the first area and the exit of the gate, the second area being closer to the camera than the first area; and
an output processor that produces an output to an effect that the person has passed through the gate, when it is determined by the second face authentication process that the person who has been successful in the first face authentication process and the person included in the second image are an identical person, wherein
the processor
determines that the person has entered the first area, when a rate of change in a size of the first face image region is equal to or greater than a first threshold, and
determines that the person has entered the second area, when a rate of change in a size of the second face image region is equal to or greater than a second threshold greater than the first threshold.
2 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein
the processor
transmits image information on the first face image region to a server in the first face authentication process, the server having information on a registrant permitted to pass through the gate,
receives, from the server, a collation result of collation between the image information on the first face image region and the information on the registrant,
determines based on the collation result whether or not the first face authentication process is successful,
receives information on a candidate corresponding to the registrant from the server when the collation between the image information on the first face image region and the information on the registrant is successful in the server, and
collates the information on the candidate and image information on the second face image region in the second face authentication process.
3 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein
the processor collates the image information on the first face image region with the image information on the second face image region in the second face authentication process.
4 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein
the processor performs the second face authentication process after the person has passed through the gate.
5 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein
the processor performs the second face authentication process using a feature amount smaller in number than a feature amount of a face used in the first face authentication process.
6 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein
the processor uses a threshold for face collation in the second face authentication process, the threshold being smaller than a threshold compared with a collation score of face collation in the first face authentication process.
7 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein
the information processing apparatus outputs a sound or an image different between a case where the first face authentication process is successful and a case where the second face authentication process is successful.
8 . An information processing method, comprising steps performed by an information processing apparatus for:
receiving an image of a person entering a gate, the image being captured by a camera in a direction from an exit of the gate toward an entrance of the gate and including a face image region;
performing a second face authentication process on the person who has been successful in a first face authentication process, the first face authentication process being based on a first face image region in a first image captured in a first area defined for the gate, the second face authentication process being based on a second face image region in a second image captured in a second area defined between the first area and the exit of the gate, the second area being closer to the camera than the first area;
and
producing an output to an effect that the person has passed through the gate, when it is determined by the second face authentication process that the person who has been successful in the first face authentication process and the person included in the second image are an identical person, wherein
determining that the person has entered the first area, when a rate of change in a size of the first face image region is equal to or greater than a first threshold, and
determining that the person has entered the second area, when a rate of change in a size of the second face image region is equal to or greater than a second threshold greater than the first threshold.
