    Abstract: A controller includes a memory device and an execution device, which executes an operation of an operated unit of an internal combustion engine. The execution device executes a first calculation process that uses adapted data sets in order to calculate an operated amount on the basis of a detected value of a state variable, a second calculation process that calculates, as the operated amount, a value that is determined by a relationship defining data set and the state variable, a reinforcement learning process that updates the relationship defining data set, first and operation processes that operate the operated unit in accordance with a calculated value of the operated amount, and a switching process that switches a process that operates the operated unit between the first operation process and the second operation process in accordance with the state of the vehicle.

    Abstract: A vehicle control method applied to a system including a vehicle controller and a server configured to communicate with the vehicle controller is provided. The vehicle control method includes executing a state obtaining process that obtains a state of a vehicle, executing an operating process that operates an electronic device based on the state of the vehicle and operating data, executing an environment information obtaining process that obtains environment information, executing an environment determination process that determines whether traveling environment indicated by the environment information is changed, and when the environment determination process determines that the traveling environment is changed, executing a data changing process that causes the vehicle controller to obtain the operating data corresponding to the environment information from the server and causes a first storage device to store the operating data.

    Abstract: A vehicle control device includes a memory configured to store relationship definition data that defines a relationship between a state of a vehicle and an action variable, which is a variable relating to an operation of electronic equipment in the vehicle, and a processor. The processor is configured to execute acquisition processing of acquiring a detection value of a sensor and driving preference information, operation processing of operating the electronic equipment, reward calculation processing of providing a greater reward when a characteristic of the vehicle satisfies a criterion than when the characteristic of the vehicle does not satisfy the criterion, and update processing of updating the relationship definition data. The processor is configured to, based on update mapping, output the relationship definition data updated to increase an expected return on the reward when the electronic equipment is operated in compliance with the relationship definition data.

    Abstract: A method of generating vehicle control data is provided. The method is executed using a processor and a storage device and includes: storing first data that prescribe a relationship between a state of a vehicle and an action variable that indicates an action related to an operation of an electronic device; acquiring a detection value from a sensor that detects the state of the vehicle; operating the electronic device; calculating a reward, on the basis of the acquired detection value; in a case where a predetermined condition is met, updating the first data using, as inputs to update mapping determined in advance, the state of the vehicle, a value of the action variable, and the reward; and in a case where the state of the vehicle does not meet the predetermined condition, obtaining second data by adapting the relationship between the state of the vehicle and the action variable.
