Cascaded multimodal analysis of alertness related features for drivers safety applications
Drowsy driving has a strong influence on the road tra c safety. Relying on improvements of sensorial technologies, a multimodal approach can provide features that can be more e↵ective in detecting the level of alertness of the drivers. In this paper, we analyze a multimodal alertness dataset that contains physiological, environmental, and vehicular features provided by Ford to determine the e↵ect of following a multimodal approach compared to relying on single modalities. Moreover, we propose a cascaded system that uses sequential feature selection, time-series feature extraction, and decision fusion to capture discriminative patterns in the data. Our experimental results confirm the e↵ectiveness of our system in improving alertness detection rates and provide guidelines of the specific modalities and approaches that can be used for improved alertness detection.
