Abstract

Techniques are described herein for inferring a state of a traffic direction feature. The technique comprises using two detection models, wherein one detection model is trained to classify a state of the traffic direction feature based at least in part on imaging data, and wherein the second detection model is trained to classify whether traffic being allowed to travel along a route or not based at least in part on sensor data indicating a movement status of an object. By comparing the outputs of the two detection models, the state of the traffic direction feature may be inferred.
