Abstract
An electric control system for controlling a travel characteristic of an automotive vehicle, wherein a driving condition, movement conditions and a travel course of the vehicle are detected and a number of parameters indicative of a resultant of learning based on a teacher data are memorized, and wherein a neural network is adapted to estimate a characteristic index indicative of a driving characteristic of the driver on a basis of the memorized parameters and the detected driving condition and travel course of the vehicle. In the control system, a control signal for control of the travel characteristic of the vehicle is produced in accordance with the detected movement conditions of the vehicle and corrected in accordance with the estimated characteristic index.
