Abstract
In an output controlling method for controlling output of a driving power source or motor installed in a vehicle, the relationship between a primary output-controller, which is manipulated by the user, and a secondary output-controller, which directly operates the motor, is regulated by control parameter subjected to evolution by using evolutionary computing based on at least one of the following: the user's characteristics, driving conditions, environmental changes, and deterioration of the drive power source with time. The evolution is conducted on-line or on a real-time basis. The primary output-controller includes an acceleration pedal or grip, and the secondary output-controller includes a throttle valve for an internal combustion engine or a running current controller for an electric motor.
