This paper explores the application of machine learning methods for recognizing automobile light signals to enhance smart traffic light systems. For vehicle detection in video footage, the Keras library was employed along with the RetinaNet neural network architecture [1]. The YOLOv8 architecture was used for identifying the status of vehicle headlights and taillights. Data collection, annotation, and model training were conducted using the Roboflow platform. The research resulted in trained model weights capable of recognizing the state of front and rear lights on various vehicle types under different weather conditions. The paper proposes an adaptation of the YOLOv8-based neural network model for recognizing traffic light signals, which can be utilized for both static recognition in photographs and in real-time or video applications.
