First optimization processing for optimizing parameters of a DNN and second optimization processing for optimizing hyperpararneters for each sample used in data augmentation processing are alternately performed. The first optimization processing includes causing the DNN to predict a first augmentation label from a first augmented sample, calculating a first error function between the first augmentation label and a first correct label for a first sample, and updating the parameters in accordance with the first error function. The second optimization processing includes acquiring a second sample, causing the DNN after the updating of the parameters to predict a second label from the second sample, calculating a second error function between the second label and a second correct label for the second sample, and updating the hyperparameter in accordance with a gradient obtained by differentiation of the second error function with respect to the hyperparameter.
