Abstract

A degradation cause estimation device is provided with a degradation detector for detecting the amount of degradation undergone by a device, a state observation device for detecting observation values for internal portions, values observed from outside, or device control and operation information, a degradation section detector for detecting a section undergoing degradation using the output values of the degradation detector, and a cause estimator for estimating the cause of the degradation using the device state observations for the degradation section, and outputs the cause for the degradation section.
