Abstract
Techniques are described herein for determining whether a traffic light signal is flashing. The technique comprises collating data representing a time-ordered sequence of classifications indicative of a likelihood that a traffic light signal is active at respective times, thereby to create collated data. output data is generated, based on the collated data, using a convolutional neural network (CNN) arranged to provide an indication of a likelihood that a traffic light signal is flashing based on an input time-ordered sequence of classifications. It is then determined whether the traffic light signal is flashing based on the output data.
