Abstract

A traffic signal analysis system can receive image data from one or more cameras of an autonomous vehicle, where the image data includes a traffic signaling system located at an intersection. The traffic signal analysis system can determine a pass-through action for the autonomous vehicle through the intersection, and access a matching signal map that includes characteristic information indicating properties of the traffic signaling system. Based on the characteristic information and the image data, the traffic signal analysis system can identify a state of the traffic signaling system for the pass-through action, and generate an output for the autonomous vehicle indicating the state of the traffic signaling system for the pass-through action.
