Abstract

A method and device for evaluating a function for predicting a trajectory of an object in an environment of a vehicle. The method includes acquiring first environment data values representing the environment of the vehicle at a first point in time, and the first environment data values including a start position of the object and object parameters; determining a trajectory of the object as a function of the start position and the object parameters, the trajectory including a possible position of the object at a second point in time later than the first point in time; acquiring second environment data values representing the environment of the vehicle at the second point in time and including an actual position of the object; determining an agreement between the possible position and the actual position at the second point in time; and evaluating the function as a function of the agreement.
