Abstract:
A control system for controlling motion of elevators of a bank of elevators uses a neural network trained for an extended destination prediction of a person based on a partial trajectory of the person to produce a multinomial of the extended destination prediction. The multinomial has at least two dimensions including a first dimension of destinations of the person and a second dimension of time intervals of the person arriving at the destinations of the first dimension. The control system optimizes a schedule of the bank of elevators based on the multinomial, and further controls the bank of elevators according to the schedule.
