Original Abstract Submitted
An information processing apparatus includes an image processing unit configured to detect a road sign from an image taken by an in-vehicle camera and configured to calculate a reliability indicating a probability that the road sign is of a specific type, and a determination processing unit configured to determine presence or absence of the road sign of the specific type in the image, in a case of the reliability less than a threshold value, by referring to map information indicating a position of the road sign of the specific type on a map based on a position at which the image is taken.
