Please predict whether this patent is acceptable.PATENT ABSTRACT: The machine learning apparatus includes: a state data observing unit which observes state data of the laser apparatus, including data output from a reflected light detecting unit for measuring a reflected light amount; an operation result acquiring unit which acquires a success/failure result indicating whether the machining has been started successfully by the laser beam output from a laser oscillator; a learning unit which learns light output command data by associating the light output command data with the state data of the laser apparatus and the success/failure result of the machining start; and a decision making unit which determines the light output command data by referring to the light output command data learned by the learning unit.
