AUTHENTICATION METHOD, STORAGE MEDIUM, AND INFORMATION PROCESSING DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18448699 titled 'AUTHENTICATION METHOD, STORAGE MEDIUM, AND INFORMATION PROCESSING DEVICE
Simplified Explanation
This patent application describes an authentication method for a computer to execute a process. Here is a simplified explanation of the abstract:
- The method involves receiving biometric information from a user.
- The received biometric information is compared to a database of registered biometric information.
- Feature points are specified from the registered biometric information that correspond to feature points in the received biometric information.
- The method determines the degree of influence on the authentication result based on the similarity between the specified feature points and the feature points in the received biometric information.
In summary, this patent application proposes a method to authenticate users based on biometric information by comparing feature points and determining the degree of similarity between them.
Original Abstract Submitted
An authentication method for a computer to execute a process includes when receiving biometric information from a user, specifying a plurality of feature points that correspond to feature points included in the received biometric information, from among feature points included in a plurality of registered pieces of biometric information; and determining a degree of influence, on an authentication result of the user, of similarity between features of the feature points included in the received biometric information and each of the specified plurality of feature points, based on the similarity between each of the specified plurality of feature points and each of the feature points included in the received biometric information.
