ABSTRACT:
An elevator control apparatus determines the time required for a call to reach a hall and controls an operation of the car using the obtained estimated travel time. The elevator control apparatus includes an input data conversion unit for converting traffic data, including car position, car direction data, and data regarding car calls and hall calls into data that can be used as input data to a neural network. An estimated travel time operation unit including an input layer is provided for taking in the input data. An output layer is provided for outputting the estimated travel time. An intermediate layer is provided between the input and output layers in which a weighting factor is set. The estimated travel time operation unit comprises a neural network and an output data conversion unit for converting the estimated travel time output from the output layer into data that can be used for a predetermined control operation.
