LEARNING APPARATUS, A LEARNING SYSTEM, LEARNING METHOD AND A LEARNING PROGRAM FOR OBJECT DISCRIMINATION

A learning apparatus in the present invention includes a weak discriminator generation unit that generates a weak discriminator which calculates a discrimination score of an instance of a target based on a feature and a bag label, a weak discrimination unit which calculates the discrimination score based on the generated weak discriminator, an instance probability calculation unit that calculates an instance probability of the target instance based on the calculated the discrimination score, a bag probability calculation unit that calculates a probability that no smaller than two positive instances are included in the bag based on the calculated instance probability and a likelihood calculation unit which calculates likelihood representing plausibility of the bag probability based on the bag label.
