Abstract
A signal processing apparatus includes: a data input unit to which image data is input; an output unit configured to output an output value based on the data input to the data input unit; an expectation feedback calculator configured to calculate a difference between an expectation based on the input data and the output value; and a Bayesian estimator to which information on the difference and information based on the image data are input and which is configured to perform machine learning in order to approximate the output value to the expectation based on the input information and to search for an optimum configuration.
