Abstract

An information processing apparatus according to one embodiment includes a memory having computer executable components stored therein; and processing circuitry communicatively coupled to the memory. The processing circuitry is configured to: acquire, for each of a plurality of sensors installed in a vehicle, positional information of an object present around the vehicle measured by the sensor; calculate a probability that the object is present for each of a plurality of areas obtained by dividing surroundings of the vehicle based on the positional information measured by the sensors; record non-measurement information indicating that the positional information was not obtained for an area corresponding to a direction in which the positional information was not obtained for each of the sensors; and determine a final probability that the object is present based on the probability calculated for each of the sensors and the non-measurement information.
