Abstract
An image collating apparatus, e.g. a fingerprint comparing apparatus, is enabled to obtain reliable collation results with a simple configuration. A plurality of areas cut out of 1 image to be processed is caused to scan another image to detect the distributions of the degrees of coincidence; these distributions of the degrees of coincidence are corrected with the positional relationship among the areas; the corrected distributions are summed up; and the coincidence or non-coincidence between the two images is judged on the basis of the resultant sum of the distributions of the degrees of coincidence
