Abstract

A face recognition system includes: an image input section that acquires a facial image of a user; a database in which a feature value of a part of a face of a registered person is stored; a facial position detection section that detects a position of a part of a face from the facial image of the user; a feature value extraction section that extracts a feature value of the part of the face; and a recognition section that recognizes the user by comparing the feature value of the part of the face which is extracted by the feature value extraction section with the feature value of the part of the face of the registered person stored in the database, in which the user selects the part of the face from which the feature value is extracted.
