Abstract
In an authentication apparatus, at least one authentication program corresponding to an authentication method of the user'"'"'s choice executes an authentication process based on data received from a sensor unit and personal feature data. An authentication determination program calculates a comprehensive authentication level value of such an authentication method on the basis of authentication evaluation data. When the calculated comprehensive authentication level value has exceeded the predetermined authentication level, the authentication determination program determines that authentication has succeeded; otherwise, the program determines that authentication has failed.
