Abstract
It is possible to perform a stochastic process based on a metropolis algorithm while reducing a physical quantity of a circuit. Provided is an information processing apparatus including one or a plurality of array circuits. In this apparatus, each of the array circuits includes a plurality of units, and each of the plurality of units includes a first memory that stores a value indicating a state of one node of a coupling model, a second memory that stores a coupling coefficient indicating coupling from a node of another unit connected to an unit of the second memory, and a logic circuit that determines a value indicating a subsequent state of the one node based on a value indicating a state of the node of the other unit and the coupling coefficient. Further, the logic circuit sets a first random variable in accordance with an exponential distribution of a parameter θ as an input.
