An engine ECU executes a program that includes the steps of: calculating (S204) a median value V(50) and a standard deviation s based on a calculated magnitude value LOG(V); and subtracting (S206) a product of the standard deviation s and a coefficient U(3) from the median value V(50) to calculate B...
