Abstract: An air-conditioning apparatus performs air conditioning by causing heat exchange between refrigerant cycling through a refrigerant circuit and indoor and outdoor air. The air-conditioning apparatus includes a sensor and a control determination device. The sensor measures concentration of any of the refrigerant leaked into the air. The control determination unit determines leakage of the refrigerant in a case when the concentration of any refrigerant leaked into the air is greater than a first threshold. The control determination device further determines an abnormality in the sensor in any one of a case where a cumulative time period of determined leakages is greater than a predetermined time period, a case where a cumulative number of times of determined leakages is greater than a predetermined number, and a case where the value indicating the concentration of any refrigerant leaked into the air is greater than a higher second threshold.

Abstract: An estimation system generates, from a value of a time series of an estimation object in a past period, a plurality of patterns of a transition of a value of the estimation object. Based on the plurality of generated patterns and a value of a time series of a factor in the past period, the estimation system specifies a dependency relationship between a transition pattern and a value of the factor and a transition pattern at a past (or future) time point and identifies a model in accordance with the specified dependency relationship. By inputting a value of a time series of the factor in a future period to the estimation model, the estimation system specifies a time series of a value in the future period of the estimation object using at least one transition pattern.
