Abstract: A control device performs inference processing using data items related to each other as inputs. A first inference model is formed by layers using data items as inputs, for feature value extraction, and a connection layer outputting output data as an inference result based on the extracted feature values, and a second inference model to which data is input, for feature value extraction. If all data items are usable, the controller controls the second inference model not to extract feature values, and the first inference model to output the output data from the connection layer based on extracted feature values. If data is unusable, the controller controls the first inference model to output the output data from the connection layer based on feature values extracted by layers using usable input data, and feature value(s) extracted by the second inference model using the usable input data.
