  • the basic statistics of M ⁇ N sensor information are input to the input layer of the neural network.
  • the average value and the variance value are used as the basic statistics of the sensor information
  • the average value and the variance value of the sensor S (j) are input to the input layer of the neural network.
  • j 1 to N.
  • the basic statistics of the sensor information or the basic statistics of the transmission line information are used as the input of the abnormality sign estimation model, but the sensor information itself or the transmission line information itself is used as the input of the abnormality sign estimation. It may be used as an input for the model.
  • the abnormality sign estimation model learning device and the abnormality sign estimation device may exist on the cloud server.
