Abstract

A process for controlling an internal combustion engine (1), whereby a set of set-point values (y_sp) of output variables (y) of the engine is determined. These set-point values are applied to an inverse model (M.sup.-1) of the engine produced from the iterative exploitation of a loop with a direct model (M) of the engine and a correction matrix (J.sup.-1) for correcting the inputs of the direct model as a function of its outputs. The result is that a set of commands (u) that can be applied to means (11) for adjusting the engine is obtained.
