Disclosed is a training evaluation device for a vehicle having a first input interface for receiving a recording of a sign given by a road user, and a second input interface for receiving a driver control command corresponding to the sign, wherein the training evaluation device propagates an artificial neural network with the recording of the sign and the driver control command to obtain a vehicle control command in the propagation of the artificial neural network, and adjusts weighting factors such that the vehicle control command matches the driver control command, for the machine learning of a meaning of the sign. A method for training an artificial neural network, a working evaluation device for an automatically operated vehicle, a driver assistance system, and a method for recognizing a meaning of a sign and for indicating a vehicle reaction to a known meaning of this sign are also disclosed.
