Abstract:
An information processing apparatus includes an extraction unit that extracts a feature from an image including a face, a first estimation unit that estimates a likelihood of the face with respect to each generation based on the feature, a storage unit that stores a plurality of samples, the plurality of samples each including a generation-specific combination of likelihoods and a correct age as a pair, a selection unit that selects a sample from the storage unit based on a combination of likelihoods estimated by the first estimation unit, and a second estimation unit that estimates an estimated age of the face and an error range thereof based on the sample selected by the selection unit.
