US Patent 11636684 Behavior model of an environment sensor

A computer-aided method for training an artificial neuronal network for the simulation of an environment sensor of a driver assistance system includes the following work steps: reading in traffic scenarios of a test journey; deriving test journey data and the sensor data to be output by the environment sensor from the traffic scenarios; generating a data stream which depicts the traffic scenarios from the perspective of the environment sensor; outputting the data stream such that the environment sensor can generate sensor data on the basis of the data stream and can provide same to a data interface at which the test journey data and the sensor data to be output are also provided; and reading the provided data into the artificial neuronal network.
