Abstract

The invention relates to a driver fatigue detection method based on face video analysis, belonging to the field of vehicle active safety and mode recognition. The method comprises the steps of: carrying out face detection on a face image to be detected for primarily positioning local organs, such as eyes, nose and mouth; further obtaining face characteristic points positioned accurately; and finally, on the basis of an accurate positioning result of multiple frames of face characteristic points to be detected, carrying out quantization description on a face motion characteristic, and obtaining the result of fatigue detection on a driver to be detected according to a face motion statistical indicator. The driver fatigue detection method has high reliability, has no special requirements on hardware, does not involve complex operation, and has good instantaneity so as to be applied in real time in practice. The driver fatigue detection method has better robustness on the aspects of eyeglasses wearing, face angles, nonuniform illumination and the like, and can be suitable for various types of vehicles for reminding a driver of being in a fatigue state so that traffic accidents are avoided.

Description

technical field

[0001] The invention belongs to the field of automobile active safety and pattern recognition, in particular to a method for detecting driver's fatigue state based on facial video analysis. Background technique

[0002] Fatigue driving is widely considered to be one of the important causes of road traffic accidents. Statistics show that the proportion of personal injury and direct property damage caused by fatigue driving is higher than that of fatigue driving accidents itself, and a considerable proportion of drivers have experienced fatigue driving. Relevant studies have shown that the development of a high-performance driver fatigue state monitoring system can greatly reduce traffic accidents caused by fatigue driving by monitoring the driver's fatigue state in real time and prompting early warning information to the driver.

[0003] The existing fatigue detection method of facial expression analysis is to estimate the fatigue state of the driver by captu...
