Abstract: An estimation method includes obtaining first sound information regarding a reflected sound resulted from reflection of a transmission sound in an inaudible band inside a facility, and outputting image information indicating a living body presence area in which a living body is present, by inputting the first sound information obtained to a first trained model trained using sound information regarding the reflected sound and an image indicating the living body presence area.

Abstract: A risk prediction method is executed by a computer of a risk predictor using a convolutional neural network. The method includes making the convolutional neural network acquire an input image taken by an in-vehicle camera installed on a vehicle. The method also includes making the convolutional neural network estimate a risk area and a feature of the risk area, the risk area being in the acquired input image. The risk area has a possibility that a moving object may appear from the risk area into a travelling path of the vehicle, and the moving object may collide with the vehicle in a case where the vehicle simply continues running. The method further includes making the convolutional neural network output the estimated risk area and the estimated feature of the risk area as a risk predicted for the input image.

Abstract: An apparatus and a method capable of accurately recognizing that a person will appear on a road and certainly notifying the person that an autonomous moving body has recognized a place where the person will appear are disclosed. An apparatus according to an embodiment of the present disclosure detects, as a recognition target, a person appearance area, in which a person will appear, formed by a recognition target presentation apparatus on a road and presents, to the person, a result of recognition indicating that the autonomous moving body has recognized the person appearance area as a result of the detection of the recognition target.
