Specifically, the visual module extracts eye closure frequency, dynamic fluctuations in pupil diameter, and yawning frequency in real time, while the physiological module monitors heart rate variability and blood oxygen saturation synchronously through a medical-grade bracelet. An entropy weighting method is used to dynamically fuse multimodal data, assigning weights based on entropy values ​​to quantify their contribution to fatigue characterization, and generating a fused fatigue index (FFI). Based on the FFI, fatigue states are divided into three levels: normal state (…). FFI <0.3), mild fatigue (0.3≤ FFI <0.6) and severe fatigue ( FFI (≥0.6), and then different levels of intervention measures are initiated to ensure the continuity and safety of the monitoring work and to avoid adverse safety production incidents caused by human factors.

For the first The feature in the first The normalized proportion of the sample; Weight generation: The weights of each feature are determined based on its entropy value; the smaller the entropy value, the higher the discriminative power of the indicator, and the greater the weight. ; 3) Fatigue index fusion and output: Weighted fusion formula: The standardized feature values ​​are combined with the weights to generate the fusion fatigue index. : ; in, For the first The normalized values ​​of each feature.

[0029] III. Fatigue Level Classification: The fusion fatigue index obtained from multimodal data fusion Using a dynamic decision tree model, a three-level fatigue state determination is achieved.

[0032] IV. Dynamic Intervention: Based on the fatigue level classification results, a dual-channel intervention mechanism combining wristband tactile alarm and automatic telephone call threshold is adopted.

Telephone calling system: Automatically dials preset long-length mobile phone numbers through an integrated module; After the call is established, a synthesized voice alarm is played: "Warning! Warning! The operator monitoring screen staff is in a state of severe fatigue. Please intervene immediately!"

[0034] 2) Dynamic Priority and Conflict Resolution: Intervention and control: Telephone calls have the highest priority. Once triggered, they forcibly occupy the communication channel and suspend other data uploads.

The entropy weighting method is used to dynamically fuse multimodal data, assigning weights based on entropy values ​​to quantify their contribution to fatigue assessment and generating a fused fatigue index (FFI). Based on the FFI, fatigue states are categorized into three levels: normal (FFI < 0.3), mild fatigue (0.3 ≤ FFI < 0.6), and severe fatigue (FFI ≥ 0.6). Different levels of intervention measures are then initiated for each level to ensure the continuity and safety of the monitoring work and prevent adverse safety incidents caused by human error.

[0040] 2. Call connection and alarm: After the shift leader answered the call, the system announced: "Warning! Warning! Operator 001's monitoring screen shows the shift member is in a state of severe fatigue. Please intervene immediately!" Press and hold the "#1" key to confirm, and the system will record the response time.

[0041] 3. Closed-loop management: The wristband stopped vibrating, and a voice prompt appeared saying, "Shift leader has confirmed, please wait for instructions." The present invention and its embodiments have been described above. This description is not restrictive. The accompanying drawings are only one embodiment of the present invention. The actual structure is not limited to this.
