  • Patent number: 11521092
    Abstract: An inference method according to the present invention in an inference system inferring a probability that an ending state holds based on a starting state and a rule set, the method includes: when a rule set derived by excluding one rule from rules constituting a first rule set is set as a second rule set, a probability that the ending state holds based on the starting state and the first rule set is set as a first inference result, and a probability that the ending state holds based on the starting state and the second rule set is set as a second inference result, calculating an importance being an indicator indicating magnitude of a difference between the first inference result and the second inference result; and outputting the rule and the importance of the rule, being associated with each other for each of the excluded rule.
