Abstract
The present invention provides, as one aspect, an exhaust gas purifying apparatus for an internal combustion engine including a setting unit that sets commanded values of an amount and a period of injection from an additive fuel injector, an adding controlling unit that injects fuel from the additive fuel injector in accordance with the commanded values, a determining unit that determines whether a high-accuracy measurement state has been entered in which a difference between measurement values of first and second air-to-fuel ratio sensors is within a predetermined range, and a calculating unit that calculates, when the high-accuracy measurement state has been entered, a deviation between the commanded value and a true value of the amount of injection by the adding controlling unit as a correction value, from at least one of the measurement values of the first and second air-to-fuel ratio sensors.
