    Abstract

    The drowsiness is an intermediate state between awake and sleep, in which the observation and analysis of a conductor is very small. The lack of concentration due to the driver fatigue is a major cause that leads to the high number of accidents. In this work, an effort has been put to detect the state of drowsiness using facial parameters obtained using facial points. Moreover, the parameters related to eye and mouth organs have also been extracted. Deep neural networks are outperforming when compared to many state-of-the art algorithms. Hence, recurrent neural networks (RNNs) and long short-term memory (LSTM) units are considered to estimate the drowsiness level of a driver. It is found that they are very appropriate in processing of sequential multimedia data. An accuracy of 97.25% is obtained with the proposed approach.
