1. A solid-state imaging device comprising:
an imager configured to acquire image data;
processing circuitry configured to perform a process based on a neural network calculation model for data based on the image data acquired from the imager; and
a controller configured to switch between a first process mode of performing a first process at a first frame rate and, based on a result of the first process, a second process mode of performing a second process at a second frame rate,
wherein in the second process, a process of reading out image data from the imager is temporally overlapped with a process based on a neural network calculation model for data based on the image data acquired from the imager.
