Apparatus, method and computer product for predicting a price of an object

摘要

A prediction apparatus that creates a prediction model using learning data, and calculates a prediction value using the prediction model, includes a model creating unit that creates a plurality of prediction models using the learning data, a residual-prediction-model creating unit that creates a residual prediction model that predicts a residual prediction error for each of the prediction models created, and a prediction-value calculating unit that combines first prediction values predicted by each of the prediction models, based on the residual prediction error predicted, to calculate second prediction value.
