Automatic driver distraction detection using deep convolutional neural networks

Recently, the number of road accidents has been increased worldwide due to the distraction of the drivers. This rapid road crush often leads to injuries, loss of properties, even deaths of the people. Therefore, it is essential to monitor and analyze the driver's behavior during the driving time to detect the distraction and mitigate the number of road accident. To detect various kinds of behavior like- using cell phone, talking to others, eating, sleeping or lack of concentration during driving; machine learning/deep learning can play significant role. However, this process may need high computational capacity to train the model by huge number of training dataset. In this paper, we made an effort to develop CNN based method to detect distracted…
