PROCESSING APPARATUS , LEARNING APPARATUS, PROCESSING METHOD, AND NONVOLATILE RECORDING MEDIUM

An inference apparatus that executes a predetermined inference process using a neural network model including: an input unit configured to receive encryption data; and a processor configured to execute a process including: executing predetermined process with respect to the encryption data using the neural network model, wherein the neural network model has a processing layer that executes a process of generating second encryption data from a plurality of pieces of first encryption data input from a previous stage and outputting the second encryption data, the second encryption data providing, by being decrypted, a processing result obtained by performing operations with modulo operation with respect to plurality of pieces of plain text data corresponding to the plurality of pieces of first encryption data, the neural network model being configured such that a nonlinear function is not applied to the second encryption data in a posterior stage of the processing layer.
