• Abstract: In order to increase road safety, among the visual and manual distractions, modern intelligent vehicles need also to detect cognitive distracted driving (i.e., the drivers mind wandering). In this study, the influence of cognitive processes on the drivers gaze behavior is explored. A novel image-based representation of the driver's eye-gaze dispersion is proposed to estimate cognitive distraction. Data are collected on open highway roads, with a tailored protocol to create cognitive distraction. The visual difference of created shapes shows that a driver explores a wider area in neutral driving compared to distracted driving. Thus, support vector machine (SVM)-based classifiers are trained, and 85.2% of accuracy is achieved for a two-class problem, even with a small dataset. Thus, the proposed method has the discriminative power to recognize cognitive distraction using gaze information. Finally, this work details how this image-based representation could be useful for other cases of distracted driving detection.

  Distracted driving is a leading cause of road accidents globally. We propose KiD3, a novel method for distracted driver detection (DDD) by infusing auxiliary knowledge about semantic relations between entities in a scene and the structural configuration of the driver's pose. Specifically, we construct a unified framework that integrates the scene graphs, and driver pose information with the visual cues in video frames to create a holistic representation of the driver's actions.

  We show that road obstacle detection techniques ignore the fact that, in practice, the apparent size of the obstacles decreases as their distance to the vehicle increases. We leverage this by computing a scale map encoding the apparent size of a hypothetical object at every image location. We then leverage this perspective map to generate training data by injecting onto the road synthetic objects whose size corresponds to the perspective foreshortening.

  Many factors can contribute to distractions while driving, since objects or events to physiological conditions, as drowsiness and fatigue, do not allow the driver to stay attentive. The technological progress allowed the development and application of many solutions to detect the attention in real situations. Our work presents a Systematic Literature Review of the methods and criteria used to detect attention of drivers at the wheel.
