Abstract

Disclosed is an artificial intelligence apparatus for controlling an auto stop function. The artificial intelligence apparatus includes an input unit configured to receive at least one of image information on surroundings of a vehicle, sound information on the surroundings of the vehicle, brake information of the vehicle, or velocity information of the vehicle; a storage unit configured to store an auto stop function control model; and a processor configured to obtain, via the input unit, input data related to at least one of traffic information or driving information, obtain base data used for determining control of the auto stop function from the input data, determine an engine ignition timing or an engine ignition setting using the base data and the auto stop function control model, and ignite the engine of the vehicle automatically according to the determined engine ignition timing or the determined of engine ignition setting, wherein the engine ignition timing is an indication of how much time is required for the engine to be ignited after the input data is obtained or after the time of the determination, and wherein the engine ignition setting is an indication of whether to i…
