Abstract
An elevator control apparatus determines an estimation of a car's crowdedness based on the a car's crowdedness when the car stops or passes an elevator hall, and controls an operation of the car using the obtained estimated car crowdedness. The elevator control apparatus includes an input data conversion unit for converting traffic data, including a position of the car, a direction of a movement, a car load and calls to be responded, into a form in which it can be used as input data of a neural net, an estimated car crowdedness operation unit including an input layer for taking in the input data, an output layer for outputting the estimated car crowdedness, and an intermediate layer provided between said input and output layers and in which a weighting factor is set, the estimated car crowdedness operation unit constituting the neural net, and an output data conversion unit for converting the estimated car crowdedness output from the output layer into a form in which it can be used for a predetermined control operation.
