Abstract
An elevator control apparatus determines an estimated car delay when the elevator car stops at or passes an elevator hall and controls an operation of the car using the obtained estimated car delay. The elevator control apparatus includes an input data conversion unit for converting traffic data, including position of the car, direction of movement, and car calls and hall calls, such that it can be used as input data of a neural net. An estimated car delay operation unit includes an input layer for taking in the input data, an output layer for outputting the estimated car delay, and an intermediate layer provided between said input and output layers in which a weighting factor is set. An output data conversion unit converts the estimated car delay output from the output layer such that it can be used for a predetermined control operation. The estimated car delay operation unit constituting a neural net.
