A biometrics authentication apparatus acquires biometric information by a biometric information acquisition section and acquires first registered information and second registered information by a registered information acquisition section. The biometrics authentication apparatus generates a comparison score from the first registered information and the biometric information, compares the comparison score and a threshold, and outputs an authentication result, by an authentication section. The biometrics authentication apparatus generates a comparison score for each of combinations of two of the biometric information by which success in authentication is obtained, the first registered information, and the second registered information, evaluates the comparison score, and generates an evaluation result, by a comparison evaluation section. When the biometric information may be good second registered information, the biometrics authentication apparatus treats the biometric information as new second registered information by a replacement section.

Imaging apparatus, imaging method, and imaging program
In the case where an imaging apparatus is not able to detect the distance to an object placed over an imaging surface thereof, if the area of a bright region in an image of the object captured by an imaging unit with light emitted from a light emitting unit is equal to or greater than a predetermined area, the imaging apparatus determines that the object is close to the imaging apparatus. Thus, it becomes possible to let the user know that the palm is too close to the imaging apparatus and to prompt the user to move the palm away from the imaging apparatus. Accordingly, it becomes possible to smoothly capture an image of the object.

A line sensor unit includes: a first light source configured to emit excitation light that excites a fluorescent substance; a second light source configured to emit non-excitation light that does not excite the fluorescent substance; a line sensor configured to receive light from a medium obtained by irradiating the medium with the excitation light or the non-excitation light; a light-emitting unit, which is excited upon receipt of the excitation light, configured to emit light responsive to the excitation light, the emitted light being incident on the line sensor; and a light-shielding unit, which is provided on a side opposite to a line-sensor side of the light-emitting unit, configured to block light advancing from the light-emitting unit to the medium.
An authentication apparatus performs identity authentication by comparing and matching image information of a palm captured by a sensor unit with a preliminarily registered template. A surface information correcting unit corrects concavity/convexity of a palm surface for surface information that allows the concavity/convexity thereof to be evaluated. The surface information is extracted by a surface information extraction unit from the image information obtained by capturing the palm. When the surface information is not corrected by the surface information correcting unit or not used for authentication by an authentication unit even after correction, the authentication apparatus newly obtains image information of the palm. Correction by the surface information correcting unit reduces opportunities for the authentication apparatus to perform notification to guide the palm to a proper posture.
