if the first comparison result represents that the face search is successful, stopping the face image comparison, and continuing to execute the step S208;

if the first comparison result represents that the face search fails, sequentially selecting a second shared face library from at least one second shared face library according to the sequence of the correlation degrees from large to small, and comparing the acquired face images with the reference face images in the selected second shared face library to generate a second comparison result;

if the second comparison result represents that the face search is successful, stopping the face image comparison, and continuing to execute the step S208;

and if the second comparison result represents that the face search fails, selecting a next second shared face library from at least one second shared face library until the currently selected second shared face library is the last second shared face library.

Based on that, as shown in fig. 6, after the step S208 of identifying the identity of the user according to the comparison result, the method further includes:

The foregoing description has been directed to specific embodiments of this disclosure. Other embodiments are within the scope of the following claims. In some cases, the actions or steps recited in the claims may be performed in a different order than in the embodiments and still achieve desirable results. In addition, the processes depicted in the accompanying figures do not necessarily require the particular order shown, or sequential order, to achieve desirable results. In some embodiments, multitasking and parallel processing may also be possible or may be advantageous.

In the 90 s of the 20 th century, improvements in a technology could clearly distinguish between improvements in hardware (e.g., improvements in circuit structures such as diodes, transistors, switches, etc.) and improvements in software (improvements in process flow). However, as technology advances, many of today's process flow improvements have been seen as direct improvements in hardware circuit architecture. Designers almost always obtain a corresponding hardware circuit structure by programming an improved method flow into the hardware circuit. Thus, it cannot be said that an improvement in the process flow cannot be realized by hardware physical blocks. For example, a Programmable Logic Device (PLD), such as a Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA), is an integrated circuit whose Logic functions are determined by programming the Device by a user. A digital system is "integrated" on a PLD by the designer's own programming without requiring the chip manufacturer to design and fabricate application-specific integrated circuit chips. Furthermore, nowadays, instead of manually manufacturing an Integrated Circuit chip, such Programming is often implemented by "logic compiler" software, which is similar to a software compiler used in program development, but the original code before compiling is also written in a specific Programming Language, which is called Hardware Description Language (HDL), and the HDL is not only one kind but many kinds, such as abll (Advanced boot Expression Language), AHDL (alternate hard Description Language), traffic, CUPL (core universal Programming Language), HD Cal (Java hard Description Language), java, loal, HDL, palas, palsa, software (software Description Language), etc., which are currently used commonly by Hardware compiler-Language (vhr-Language). It will also be apparent to those skilled in the art that hardware circuitry for implementing the logical method flows can be readily obtained by a mere need to program the method flows with some of the hardware description languages described above and into an integrated circuit.

The controller may be implemented in any suitable manner, for example, the controller may take the form of, for example, a microprocessor or processor and a computer readable medium that stores computer readable program code (e.g., software or firmware) executable by the (micro) processor, logic gates, switches, an Application Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC), a programmable logic controller, and embedded microcontrollers, examples of which include, but are not limited to, the following microcontrollers: ARC 625D, atmel AT91SAM, microchip PIC18F26K20, and Silicone Labs C8051F320, the memory controller may also be implemented as part of the control logic for the memory. Those skilled in the art will also appreciate that, in addition to implementing the controller as pure computer readable program code, the same functionality can be implemented by logically programming method steps such that the controller is in the form of logic gates, switches, application specific integrated circuits, programmable logic controllers, embedded microcontrollers and the like. Such a controller may thus be regarded as a hardware component and the means for performing the various functions included therein may also be regarded as structures within the hardware component. Or even means for performing the functions may be regarded as being both a software module for performing the method and a structure within a hardware component.

The systems, devices, modules or units illustrated in the above embodiments may be implemented by a computer chip or an entity, or by a product with certain functions. One typical implementation device is a computer. In particular, the computer may be, for example, a personal computer, a laptop computer, a cellular telephone, a camera phone, a smartphone, a personal digital assistant, a media player, a navigation device, an email device, a game console, a tablet computer, a wearable device, or a combination of any of these devices.

These computer program instructions may also be loaded onto a computer or other programmable data processing apparatus to cause a series of operational steps to be performed on the computer or other programmable apparatus to produce a computer implemented process such that the instructions which execute on the computer or other programmable apparatus provide steps for implementing the functions specified in the flowchart flow or flows and/or block diagram block or blocks.

In a typical configuration, a computing device includes one or more processors (CPUs), input/output interfaces, network interfaces, and memory.

The memory may include forms of volatile memory in a computer readable medium, random Access Memory (RAM) and/or non-volatile memory, such as Read Only Memory (ROM) or flash memory (flash RAM). Memory is an example of a computer-readable medium.

As defined herein, a computer readable medium does not include a transitory computer readable medium such as a modulated data signal and a carrier wave.

It should also be noted that the terms "comprises," "comprising," or any other variation thereof, are intended to cover a non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, article, or apparatus that comprises a list of elements does not include only those elements but may include other elements not expressly listed or inherent to such process, method, article, or apparatus.

a processor; and

a memory arranged to store computer executable instructions that, when executed, cause the processor to:

acquiring a face image of a user by using the Internet of things equipment;

determining a target equipment group where the Internet of things equipment is located; the comprehensive similarity degree of the equipment portrait information of the Internet of things equipment in the target equipment group is larger than a preset threshold value;

comparing the face image with a shared face library directly corresponding to the target equipment group, and if the face image is unsuccessfully matched in the shared face library directly corresponding to the target equipment group, comparing the face image with the shared face library indirectly corresponding to the target equipment group to generate a comparison result; wherein the shared face library is constructed at a division stage of the device group, and the indirectly corresponding shared face library includes: the shared face library directly corresponds to the associated equipment group of which the correlation degree of the target equipment group is greater than a preset correlation degree threshold;

and identifying the identity of the user according to the comparison result.

20. A storage medium storing computer-executable instructions that, when executed by a processor, implement a method of:

collecting a face image of a user by using the Internet of things equipment;

and identifying the identity of the user according to the comparison result.
