METHOD FOR REDUCING EXHAUST GAS EMISSIONS OF A DRIVE SYSTEM OF A VEHICLE INCLUDING AN INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINE

A method for reducing exhaust gas emissions of a drive system of a vehicle including an internal combustion engine, including generating first driving profiles using a computer-implemented machine learning system, the statistical distribution of the first driving profiles being a function of a statistical distribution of second driving profiles measured during real driving operation, calculating respective exhaust gas emissions for the first driving profiles using a computer-implemented modeling of the vehicle or the drive system, adapting the drive system as a function of at least one of the calculated exhaust gas emissions, the adaptation taking place as a function of a level or of a profile of the calculated exhaust gas emissions and of a statistical frequency of the corresponding first driving profile, the statistical frequency of the corresponding first driving profile being ascertained with the aid of the statistical distribution of the first driving profiles.
