Abstract:
An approximate computation unit computes an approximate of a determinant of a Hessian matrix relating to a parameter of an observation model represented as a linear combination of parameters determined by each layer 1 latent variable of factorial hidden Markov models. A variational probability computation unit computes a variational probability of a latent variable using the approximate of the determinant. A latent state removal unit removes a latent state based on a variational distribution. A parameter optimization unit optimizes the parameter for a criterion value that is defined as a lower bound of an approximate obtained by Laplace-approximating a marginal log-likelihood function with respect to an estimator for a complete variable, and computes the criterion value. A convergence determination unit determines whether or not the criterion value has converged.
Abstract:
A parallel allocation calculating unit calculates a parallel allocation candidate which is an element candidate in target data allocated per processing performed in parallel. A parallel calculation amount estimation processing unit estimates the calculation amount required for parallel processing when a parallel allocation candidate is allocated, based on a nonzero element count in the target data. An optimality decision processing unit decides whether or not the parallel allocation candidate is optimal based on the calculated calculation amount, and allocates the optimal element per processing performed in parallel.

A computational resource management apparatus is for managing a cluster system that executes a plurality of tasks. The computational resource management apparatus includes a condition specification unit that specifies a relationship between computational resources of the cluster system and computation time, a dependency relationship between tasks, and an execution time limit of each task, and a scheduling unit that determines, for each task, an execution sequence and computational resources to be allocated from among the computational resources of the cluster system, based on the relationship between the computational resources and computation time and the dependency relationship that are specified, such that the execution time limit is met.

Abstract:
A model input unit 84 receives a linear regression model represented by a function having an objective variable as an explanatory variable. A candidate point input unit 85 receives, for the objective variable included in the linear regression model, at least one candidate point which is a discrete candidate for a possible value of the objective variable. An optimization unit 86 calculates the objective variable that optimizes an objective function having the linear regression model as an argument.

Abstract:
A classifier 81 classifies target data into a cluster on the basis of a mixture model defined using two different types of variables that indicate features of the target data. In this classification, the classifier 81 classifies the target data into a cluster on the basis of a mixture model in which a mixing ratio of the mixture model is represented by a function of a first variable and in which the element distribution of the clusters into which the target data is classified is represented by a function of a second variable.
Abstract:
A price estimation device that can predict a price with a high degree of precision is disclosed. Said price estimation device has a price-predicting means that predicts a price pertaining to second information in a target second time period by applying rule information to said second information, which includes explanatory variables. Said rule information represents the relationship between the explanatory variables and the price, said relationship having been extracted on the basis of a first-information set comprising first information in which explanatory-variable values are associated with price values. The explanatory variables include an attribute that represents a length of time, determined on the basis of a first time period in which a specific event occurs, pertaining to a target object associated with the aforementioned first information or the abovementioned second information. The value of said attribute in the second information is the length of time between the first time period and the second time period, and the value of the attribute in the first information is the length of time between the first time period and a third time period associated with the abovementioned price.
