Embodiments of this application provide a living body detection method that can include traversing a plurality of images of a to-be-detected object, and using a currently traversed image as a current image, performing face feature extraction on the current image to obtain an eigenvector corresponding to the current image, the eigenvector describing a structure of a face feature of the object in the current image. The method can further include capturing an action behavior of the to-be-detected object according to a change of the eigenvector corresponding to the current image relative to an eigenvector corresponding to a historical image in a feature sequence, the historical image being a traversed image in the plurality of images, and the feature sequence including an eigenvector corresponding to at least one historical image, and determining the to-be-detected object as a living body in response to capturing the action behavior of the object.
