Abstract: A learning system which is capable of easily collecting data of affected parts having completely recovered, as training data. When it is determined that an affected part has completely recovered based on affected-part image data generated by shooting the affected part, image data accompanied with the same affected part ID as that of the affected-part image data is identified from among image data set stored in a storage device of the learning system. The actual number of days to a complete recovery of the affected part is calculated from shooting dates of the identified image data and the affected-part image data, and is added to the affected-part image data. The affected-part image data accompanied with the actual number of days to the complete recovery is used as training data to create a trained model that predicts the number of days to a complete recovery of the affected part.
