Abstract: A device and a computer-implemented method for classifying data, in particular for a Controller Area Network or an automotive Ethernet network. A plurality of messages is received from a communications network. A message that has a predefined message type is selected for an input variable for an input model of a plurality of input models of an artificial neural network associated with the predefined message type. The input variable is determined as a function of the message, and in an output area of the artificial neural network a prediction is output that is usable for classifying the message as a function of the input variable, or a reconstruction of an input variable is output that is usable for classifying the message as a function of this input variable.

Abstract: A method for creating a model of a technical system as a function of measured sensor data of the technical system. The method includes the following steps: initializing a symbolic regression problem. A list of mathematical functions is established, including at least one linear and/or non-linear function and/or at least a one-dimensional parameterizable characteristic curve. The at least one-dimensional characteristic curve is implemented by a Smoothed Grid Regression (SGR) model. Solving the symbolic regression problem with the aid of a genetic algorithm.
