Abstract :
The advance of computing technology has provided the means for building intelligent vehicle systems. Drowsy driver detection system is one of the potential applications of intelligent vehicle systems. Here we employ machine learning techniques to detect driver drowsiness. The system obtained 98% performance in predicting driver drowsiness. This is the highest prediction rate reported to date for detecting real drowsiness. Moreover, the analysis revealed new information about human behavior during drowsy driving.
