Abstract
A controller controls a suspension apparatus including a variable damper that adjusts a force between a vehicle body and a wheel of a vehicle. The controller includes a first instruction calculation portion and a control instruction output portion. The first instruction calculation portion outputs a first instruction value of a damping force, which corresponds to a first target amount, using a learning result acquired from machine learning in advance by inputting a plurality of different pieces of information. The control instruction output portion limits the first instruction value and outputs it as a control instruction in a case where the first instruction value works in a direction leading to a greater vehicle state amount than a predetermined amount due to control of the variable damper based on the first instruction value.
