Energy amount estimating device, energy amount estimating method, and energy amount estimating program

摘要

An energy-amount estimation device that can predict an energy amount with a high degree of precision is disclosed. Said energy-amount estimation device has a prediction unit that, on the basis of the relationship between energy amount and one or more explanatory variables representing information that can influence said energy amount, predicts an energy amount pertaining to prediction information that indicates a prediction target. The aforementioned relationship is computed on the basis of specific learning information, within learning information in which an objective variable representing the aforementioned energy amount is associated with the one or more explanatory variables, that matches or is similar to the aforementioned prediction information.
