Abstract

A processing method executed by a processing system that performs first inference in an edge device and performs second inference in a server device, the processing method includes determining whether or not a tendency of a target data group on which inference is performed is changed in at least one of the edge device or the server device on a basis of a variation in load or a decrease in inference accuracy in at least one of the edge device or the server device, and executing relearning of at least one of a first model that performs the first inference or a second model that performs the second inference in a case where it is determined that the tendency of the target data group is changed.

Claims (13)

1 . A processing method executed by a processing system that performs first inference in an edge device and performs second inference in a server device, the processing method comprising:

determining whether or not a tendency of a target data group on which inference is performed is changed in at least one of the edge device or the server device on a basis of a variation in load or a decrease in inference accuracy in at least one of the edge device or the server device; and

executing relearning of at least one of a first model that performs the first inference or a second model that performs the second inference in a case where it is determined that the tendency of the target data group is changed.

2 . The processing method according to claim 1 , wherein the relearning of at least one of the first model or the second model is executed by using data having a larger contribution to the variation in load or the decrease in inference accuracy in the target data group.

3 . The processing method according to claim 1 , wherein target data on which the second inference is executed and an inference result in the second inference of the target data in the target data group are set as learning data, and the relearning of the first model is executed.

4 . The processing method according to claim 1 , wherein target data on which the second inference is executed and a corrected inference result obtained by correcting an inference result in the second inference of the target data in the target data group are set as learning data, and the relearning of the second model is executed.

5 . A processing system that performs first inference in an edge device and performs second inference in a server device, the processing system comprising:

processing circuitry configured to:

determine whether or not a tendency of a target data group on which inference is performed is changed in at least one of the edge device or the server device on a basis of a variation in load or a decrease in inference accuracy in at least one of the edge device or the server device; and

execute relearning of at least one of a first model that performs the first inference or a second model that performs the second inference in a case where it is determined that the tendency of the target data group is changed.

6 . A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium storing therein a processing program that causes a computer to execute a process comprising:

determining whether or not a tendency of a target data group on which inference is performed is changed in at least one of an edge device or a server device on a basis of a variation in load or a decrease in inference accuracy in at least one of the edge device or the server device; and

executing relearning of at least one of a first model that performs first inference in the edge device or a second model that performs second inference in the server device in a case where it is determined that the tendency of the target data group is changed.
