Abstract
A control method for controlling a system including an imaging apparatus and a processing apparatus having a learning model to which image data is input includes capturing a first workpiece using the imaging apparatus set to a first imaging condition, thereby obtaining first image data, performing machine learning on the learning model using the first image data as supervised data, obtaining second image data using the imaging apparatus set to the first imaging condition, inputting the second image data to the trained learning model and making an estimation regarding a second workpiece based on the second image data, in a case where an accuracy of the estimation is lower than a predetermined value, obtaining third image data using the imaging apparatus set to a second imaging condition different from the first imaging condition, and performing machine learning on the learning model using the third image data as the supervised data.
