Abstract

According to one embodiment, a communication device includes one or more processors. The processors decide on a first-type parameter representing a conversion operation for converting input data into first-type conversion data. The processors calculate first-type predicted distributions based on second-type parameters, each representing one of the plurality of clusters. The processors update the first-type parameter and the second-type parameters so as to achieve optimization of first-type differences representing differences between the first-type predicted distributions and a target distribution, and second-type differences representing differences between the first-type predicted distributions and second-type predicted distributions that indicate probability at which second-type converted data. The second-type converted data is obtained by converting data, which is formed by augmentation of the input data, using the first-type parameter belongs to the clusters. The processors classify the input data into the plurality of clusters based on the first-type predicted distributions calculated using the updated second-type parameters.
