Abstract
An inference apparatus that infers a class of a case is provided. The apparatus includes an inference unit configured to infer a class of a case with use of an inference device and an evaluation unit configured to, based on a result of inference performed by the inference device with respect to a known case that is similar to an unknown case, evaluate a result of inference with respect to the unknown case.
Claims8
An inference apparatus that infers a class of a case, comprising:
- an inference unit configured to infer a class of a case with use of an inference device;
- and
- an evaluation unit configured to, based on a result of inference performed by the inference device with respect to a known case that is similar to an unknown case, evaluate a result of inference with respect to the unknown case.
An inference method for inferring a class of a case, comprising:
- inferring a class to which an unknown case belongs with use of an inference device;
- and
- calculating a reliability of the inferred class based on a result of inference performed by the inference device with respect to a known case that is similar to the unknown case.
