Abstract
A method for creating an emissions model of an internal combustion engine. The method begins with a provision of a plurality of measurement series at an internal combustion engine. There then follows a filtering of the measurement series using various low-pass filters, and ascertaining, from the filtered measurement series, those measurement series, when provided as an input variable for the emissions model during optimization of the emissions model, the smallest deviation from predicted emissions of the emissions model for measured emissions is achieved.
