1. An indoor-temperature estimation apparatus comprising:
a processor to execute a program; and
a memory to store the program which, when executed by the processor, performs processes of,
specifying a learning affected period and a learning unaffected period from operation history information indicating an operation history of a temperature control device controlling room temperature in a learning period, the room temperature being indoor temperature, the learning period being a period during which learning of the room temperature is performed, the learning affected period being a period during which the room temperature is affected by the temperature control device in the learning period, the learning unaffected period being a period during which the room temperature is unaffected by the temperature control device in the learning period;
generating a room temperature model in the learning unaffected period from room temperature history information, by learning external environment information and by learning room temperature in the learning unaffected period, the room temperature history information indicating a history of learning room temperature, and the external environment information indicating an outdoor environment;
estimating a learning temporary room temperature by using the room temperature model, the learning temporary room temperature being the room temperature estimated without an effect of the temperature control device in a same period as the learning affected period; and
generating a room temperature change model, in the learning affected period, by using the room temperature history information and the operation history information and by learning the learning room temperature and the learning temporary room temperature in the learning affected period, the room temperature change model indicating a change in the room temperature caused by the temperature control device.
