Modular design of fatigue detection in naturalistic driving environments.

Research in driver mental fatigue is motivated by the fact that errors made by drivers often have life-threatening consequences. This paper proposes a new modular design approach for the early detection of driver fatigue system taking into account optimisation of system performance using particle swarm optimisation (PSO). The proposed system is designed and implemented using an existing dataset that was simultaneously collected from participants and vehicles in a naturalistic environment.
