Abstract
A traffic signal recognition method and a traffic signal recognition device acquire a result sequence consisting of a plurality of determination results in time-series order obtained by determining a display state of a traffic signal based on a plurality of images of a traveling direction of a vehicle, set a first threshold as a number threshold if a first distance from a position of the vehicle to a position of a stop line corresponding to the traffic signal is equal to or greater than a distance threshold, set a second threshold smaller than the first threshold as the number threshold if the first distance is less than the distance threshold, and output a latest determination result if a number of determination results identical to the latest determination result is greater than the number threshold, among the determination results.
