A control device for an automobile having an engine knock sensor for detecting engine knock of said automobile engine, and an actuator for controlling said engine knock, said control device including transformation means for transforming signals from said knock sensor into a spatial multi-variable signal consisting of plural bits and to apply said spatial multi-variable signal to a hierarchical group of neural elements, each element providing an output O1 where ##EQU12## where Oj are inputs, Wij are weighting factors and θ

  • is a threshold,and further including modifying means for adaptively controlling the internal parameters of the neural elements by comparison with actual knock data, and a control means for receiving an output signal from said group of neural elements for controlling said actuator.
