Abstract
Disclosed is a method of detecting a traffic light with an object recognition model configured to recognize traffic lights. The method includes: obtaining an input image from a camera included in a vehicle, the input image among frames, including previous frames, captured by the camera; estimating, based on prior information about traffic light objects, a first region of interest (RoI) for the input image; determining a second RoI based on the first RoI and based on detection results of the previous frames, wherein the detection of results correspond to recognition results of recognizing traffic lights in the previous frames by the object recognition model; and recognizing, by the object recognition model, a traffic light in the input image, wherein the recognizing is based on the input image and the second RoI.
