Abstract
A method and apparatus for recognizing a protrusion on a face is proposed. The apparatus forms two images, wherein one is formed in a condition in which a target is lighted and another is formed in a condition in which the target is non-lighted. Face regions are detected from the images respectively and then are compared each other. Then, analyzing change in intensity for indicating change in contrast of the compared regions is performed. Based on the result of the analyzing, it is determined whether there is a protrusion in a face presented in the images.
