Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to a face recognition method, an apparatus, and a computer-readable recording medium for executing the method. According to some aspects of the present disclosure, the face recognition method includes: (a) a key point setting step of setting key points at designated positions on an input face image; (b) a key point descriptor extracting step of extracting each descriptor for each key point; and (c) a matching step of determining whether the input face image matches pre-stored face images using descriptors for key points within a designated region including each descriptor for each first key point obtained from the input face image, and second key points of pre-stored face images which correspond to first key points obtained from the input face image.
