The invention relates to a method for checking the trueness of synthetic training data of a
machine learning model, comprising the steps of: providing synthetic training data, the synthetic training data being described by statistical variables, the synthetic training data imitating sensor data, and in the range of training the
machine learning model, determining the trueness of the synthetic training data; the upper limit of the
confidence interval of the statistical variable is determined based on the synthetic training data, real data is provided, the real data is also described by the statistical variable, the real data comprises sensor data, the sensor data is generated by detection of at least one sensor, and the upper limit of the
confidence interval of the statistical variable is determined in the range of reasoning of the
machine learning model. A
lower limit of a
confidence interval of the statistical variable is determined on the basis of the real data, the
lower limit is continuously determined from the beginning of the reasoning, the authenticity of the composite training data is checked on the basis of a comparison of the continuously determined
lower limit with the determined upper limit, and a
system deviation of the composite training data relative to the real data is detected. The invention also relates to a
computer program, a device and a storage medium.
