Abstract
To provide a controller and a control method for an internal combustion engine capable of performing automatic adaptation of the optimal ignition timing or the optimal control value of the combustion operation mechanism during operating. A controller and a control method for an internal combustion engine changes setting values of a torque characteristics function so that an output torque calculated using the torque characteristics function approaches an output torque calculated based on an actual value of internal cylinder pressure; calculates a plurality of output torques corresponding to respective plurality of combustion control states using the torque characteristics function; and changes setting values of a combustion control target setting function so that a target value of combustion control state calculated using the combustion control target setting function approaches a maximum torque combustion control state where the output torque becomes the maximum.
