Online Driver Distraction Detection Using Long Short-Term Memory

Lane-keeping assistance systems for vehicles may be more acceptable to users if the assistance was adaptive to the driver's state. To adapt systems in this way, a method for detection of driver distraction is needed. A novel technique is proposed for online detection of driver's distraction, modeling the long-range temporal context of driving and head tracking data. Long short-term memory (LSTM) recurrent neural networks enable a reliable subject-independent detection of inattention with an accuracy of up to 96.6 percent. The LSTM framework significantly outperforms conventional approaches such as support vector machines.
