Claim 15:
16. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing an inference program, which when read and executed, causes computer to perform operations comprising:
obtaining predetermined target data usable in predetermined inference;
obtaining environment data about a target environment in which the predetermined inference is to be performed;
providing the target data to a plurality of inference models and obtaining an inference result for the target data from each of the plurality of inference models, each of the plurality of inference models being derived from local learning data obtained in a different environment, each of the plurality of inference models being configured to perform the predetermined inference using the target data;
combining the inference result from each of the plurality of inference models under a combining rule to generate an inference result for the target data in the target environment,
the combining rule comprising a plurality of combining parameters, each of the plurality of combining parameters defining a priority on an inference result from a corresponding inference model of the plurality of inference models in the target environment,
combining the inference result from each of the plurality of inference models under the combining rule comprising
determining a value of each of the plurality of combining parameters using the environment data,
weighting the inference result from each of the plurality of inference models using the determined value of each of the plurality of combining parameters, and
combining the weighted inference result from each of the plurality of inference models; and

outputting information about the inference result generated from the combining.
