Please help me predict the CPC LABEL for this patentPATENT ABSTRACT: Provided is a state determination apparatus that appropriately performs pattern classification processing and/or pattern determination processing even when a map generated by the SOM technique includes discontinuous image regions. In the state determination apparatus, the matching processing unit obtains adaptability data indicating a correlation degree between template data indicating a state and the SOM output data. The state determination unit obtains a state evaluation value based on an activity value obtained by the activity value obtaining unit and the adaptability value. The time series estimation unit determines a state of an input data based on the state evaluation value and state transition probability between states. This allows for appropriately performing pattern classification processing and/or pattern determination processing even when a map generated by the SOM technique includes discontinuous image regions.
