Abstract
An image classifying apparatus may include a database constructor which constructs database by detecting face region from received classification target image, extracting face feature descriptor from detected face region, extracting a costume feature descriptor using position information of detected face region, and storing face feature descriptor and costume feature descriptor in database, a first processor which generates representative image model by comparing face feature descriptor and costume feature descriptor of classification target image stored in database based on a received representative image to search for a similar image and registering similar image in a representative image model for each person, and second processor which compares additional information of representative image stored in representative image model for each person and additional information of classification target image stored in database and classifies image for each person based on similarity measured by adding up weights corresponding to similarities according to comparison results.
