Publication number: 20220128988Abstract: A data-series group includes data series which is a series of data obtained by observing the same object at discrete times. Time labels are time information added to respective data included in the data-series group. State labels are added to some of the data included in the data-series group. A loss-function control unit determines a loss function to be used for learning based on the time labels and the state labels. A threshold is used to adjust a branch condition of the loss-function control unit. A regressor is a model, and is used to detect an abnormality or predict a remaining life span. A dictionary stores parameters of the regressor. A regressor training unit trains the regressor based on the loss function determined by the loss-function control unit.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 19, 2019Publication date: April 28, 2022Applicant: NEC CorporationInventors: Azusa SAWADA, Takashi SHIBATA, Katsuhiko TAKAHASHI

Publication number: 20210174231Abstract: Disclosed is a model generation device capable of mitigating the risk of overlooking a phenomenon of interest in machine learning. The model generation device determines whether or not a label of a first data is similar to a label of a second data. The model generation device assigns the label of the second data to the first data when determining that the label of the first data is similar to the label of the second data based on a degree of similarity between observation information representing a state where the first data is observed and observation information representing a state where the second data is observed. The model generation device calculates model representing a relevance between data information containing the first data and the second data and label information containing the assigned label and the label of the second data.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 2, 2018Publication date: June 10, 2021Applicant: NEC CorporationInventors: Azusa SAWADA, Takashi SHIBATA, Katsuhiko TAKAHASHI
