Abstract :
We address an automatic computer system which can recognize a driver´s behavior by analysis of his/her facial expressions for the purpose of driving safety. This system is intended to be used for monitoring whether the driver is sleepy, or if the driver is faced with very dangerous traffic situations. The output of this recognition system is fed into intelligent control systems to aid control of the car
