Abstract: A learning model generating unit generates a learning model using a user ID of a user estimated by a driver estimating unit and driving attributes of the user, as training data. Specifically, a learning model generating unit generates a learning model in which the driving attributes are an explanatory variable and the user ID of a user is an objective variable. When various driving attributes are input to the driving behavior model, the user ID of a driver specified by the attributes is output.
