    Abstract: An OD matrix estimation device includes: an extraction unit that, on the basis of intra-bank OD matrixes that show traffic flow information in respective elevator banks in plural elevator banks and transfer floor information about a transfer floor where transfers among the elevator banks is possible, extracts transfer-related intra-bank OD matrixes having a common transfer floor from among the intra-bank OD matrixes; a matching unit that, from among the transfer-related intra-bank OD matrixes extracted by the extraction unit, combines first transfer intra-bank OD matrixes each including OD data in which the transfer floor is defined as an arrival floor with second transfer intra-bank OD matrixes each including OD data in which the transfer floor is defined as a departure floor to create transfer-related OD data; and an estimation unit that estimates OD data for users who transfer and move among the banks.

    Abstract: To make it possible to comprehensively predict the movement of people by associating an elevator control system in a facility such as a building and an external system other than this system with each other and thereby provide a new service that has not existed before. There is provided an elevator operation management system for controlling and managing multiple elevator devices in a facility, the system including: a reception unit that acquires information on the number of users to use the elevator devices and elevator car destination information; a learning unit that stores and learns, as past experience data, the information on the number of users and the elevator car destination information acquired from the reception unit; a per-floor number-of-people estimation unit that estimates the number of users getting off at each elevator hall floor using storage information of the learning unit; and a request information output unit that outputs the number of people getting off thus estimated in the facility to a system other than the elevator operation management system.

    Abstract: In a building human flow estimation system having a building human flow simulation section which receives, as input values, building traffic data indicative of floors between which people move by using an elevator in a building, building layout data related to a layout of the building, and an elevator parameter value related to the elevator and estimates a flow of people, there are provided an evaluation section which calculates an evaluation value for evaluating a reproduction degree of the flow of people estimated by the building human flow simulation section based on a first evaluation index related to the flow of people estimated by the building human flow simulation section and a second evaluation index related to an actual flow of people in the building, and an output section which outputs the evaluation value calculated by the evaluation section.
