Original Abstract Submitted
a face authentication apparatus includes a face image acquisition unit, a collation unit, a time measurement unit, and a threshold change unit. the face image acquisition unit acquires a face image of an authentication target. the collation unit performs face authentication on the face image of the authentication target on the basis of a threshold. the time measurement unit measures the elapsed time from the time of starting operation of the face authentication apparatus. the threshold change unit restricts changing of the threshold to a value larger than a value determined depending on the measured elapsed time.
