View Independent Drowsy Behaviour and Tiredness Detection

Abstract

Automatic identification of driver fatigue, drowsiness and sleepiness has many applications such as vehicle safety, operator safety and accident prevention, automatic monitoring and detection systems. This research paper examines use of color and depth data for detection of drowsy behavior. The data was recorded using two cameras, one on front and one on side view along with a depth sensor. The facial expressions, hand motion and body posture was used to classify fatigue, tiredness, sleepiness, drowsiness and boredom using support vector machines (SVM). In this study the upper torso and parts above waist were tracked. The evaluation of actions was done in dim as well as natural lighting inside a closed settings similar to interiors of a car. The recognition accuracy was better when data from both views was combined. The recognition accuracy was less in low lit and dim lighting settings inside car.
