FUTURE STATE ESTIMATION DEVICE AND FUTURE STATE ESTIMATION METHOD

摘要

An objective of the present invention is to provide a future state estimation method and future state estimation device with which, given that the space in which the estimation is carried out is finite, it is possible to rapidly estimate the states of a controlled object and the peripheral environment thereof in the form of probability density distribution for infinite future. Provided is a future state estimation device characterized by comprising: a model storage part for saving a model for simulating a subject of simulation and the peripheral environment of the subject of simulation; a future state forecast result storage part for storing information obtained by estimating future states of the subject of simulation and the peripheral environment of the subject of simulation within a finite space in the form of probability density distribution, for either an infinite time or a given time step in the future; and a future state forecast computation part for carrying out calculation, which is equivalent to a series, using the model for simulating the future states of the subject of simulation and the peripheral environment of the subject of simulation in the form of probability density distribution.
