• Abstract: Modern driving involves interactive technologies that can divert attention, increasing the risk of accidents. This paper presents a computational cognitive model that simulates human multitasking while driving. Based on optimal supervisory control theory, the model predicts how multitasking adapts to variations in driving demands, interactive tasks, and automation levels. Unlike previous models, it accounts for context-dependent multitasking across different degrees of driving automation. The model predicts longer in-car glances on straight roads and shorter glances during curves. It also anticipates increased glance durations with driver aids such as lane-centering assistance and their interaction with environmental demands. Validated against two empirical datasets, the model offers insights into driver multitasking amid evolving in-car technologies and automation.

  This study focuses on the development of contextual, semantically meaningful representations of the driver state. We conduct a large-scale real-world controlled data study where participants are instructed to take-over control from an autonomous agent. These take-over events are captured using multiple driver-facing cameras, which when labelled result in a dataset of control transitions and their corresponding take-over times (TOTs) After augmenting this dataset, we develop and train TOT models that operate sequentially on low and mid-level features produced by computer vision algorithms operating on different driver-facing camera views.
