A method for classifying an object for a vehicle. The method includes at least: classifying, extracting and creating. In the classifying, an object from a camera image is classified using a generic classifier. In the extracting, at least one specific object feature assigned to the object is extracted from the camera image. In the creating, a specific classifier is created using the specific object feature.

Method and device for classifying an object for a vehicle

A method for ascertaining a viscosity of a fuel with the aid of an electric fuel pump which is integrated into a fuel circuit including an overflow valve which includes a permanently open discharge channel, a fuel supply and delivery being adjusted with the aid of the electric fuel pump in the fuel circuit at a specific pressure and the viscosity of the fuel being ascertained by taking into account a delivery rate of the electric fuel pump.

Method for ascertaining a viscosity of a fuel

A method for operating a drive system including an internal combustion engine, the drive system including an electromotively-assisted exhaust-driven supercharging device or a strictly electrically operated supercharging device, the method including checking on whether a gear change has been initiated and a drive train has been disengaged accordingly; upon detecting an initiated gear change, adjusting the compressor power of the supercharging device by additionally facilitating electric power to the electromotively-assisted exhaust-driven supercharging device or to the strictly electrically operated supercharging device, in such a way that, at least toward the end of the gear change, a charging pressure is made available in a charging pressure section of the drive system which is higher than a charging pressure resulting at a compressor power, which corresponds to the exhaust gas enthalpy of the internal combustion engine provided during the gear change.

Method and device for operating a drive system including an internal combustion engine

A method for operating a supercharger having an electrically operable compressor in an engine system having an internal combustion engine, having the following steps: determining a particular system state when the internal combustion engine is shut off; forming a purge path between an air supply system and an exhaust gas system of the engine system; activating the electrically operable compressor as a function of the determined system state.

Method and device for operating an electrically operable compressor of a supercharger

A method for diagnosing a component in a gas-routing system of a supercharged combustion engine having an electrically operable compressor, the method including activating the electrically operable compressor after the combustion engine has been shut off, opening a flow path through the gas-routing system, measuring a state variable in the gas-routing system, and detecting a fault of the component as a function of the measured state variable.

Method and device for diagnosing a component in a gas-routing system of an engine system having a combustion engine

A method for ascertaining a position of a rotor relative to a stator of an electrical machine having a permanently excited rotor and a plurality of windings for the stator or vice versa; in response to an energization of at least one of the windings, a change in an inductance of the winding being ascertained; and, on the basis of the change in the inductance of the winding, the position of the rotor being ascertained relative to the stator.
