Abstract
An authentication device includes an acquisition unit that acquires first image data generated at a first timing and indicating a first face of a living creature to be authenticated, age information indicating an age of the living creature at the first timing, second image data generated at a second timing later than the first timing and indicating a second face of the living creature, and aging information indicating a time period from the first timing to the second timing, and a controller that compares the first image data with the second image data. The controller calculates a similarity between the first face and the second face based on the first image data and the second image data, corrects the similarity based on the age information and the aging information, and determines, based on the corrected similarity, whether the living creature in the first image data is identical to the living creature in the second image data.
