Abstract

An aspect of the present invention is a learning apparatus including a time series acquisition unit that is configured to, with a time series of an amplitude of a fluctuating oscillator whose amplitude changes periodically being defined as an oscillator time series, acquire an observed time series which is a time series represented by an oscillator linear sum which is a linear sum of the oscillator time series and a learning processing execution unit that is configured to use an expression representing a generation mechanism of the observed time series and a mathematical model representing a relationship between a probabilistic state transition of a state of a generation source of the observed time series and a symbol output which is information probabilistically output in the state to execute a linear sum estimation learning model which is a mathematical model that is configured to estimate the oscillator linear sum of the observed time series on the basis of the observed time series, wherein the learning processing execution unit is configured to update the linear sum estimation learning model on the basis of a result of execution of the linear sum estimation learning model.
