Abstract:

© 2021, King Fahd University of Petroleum & Minerals. Having a full situational awareness while driving is one of the most important perceptions for safe driving which can be reduced by various factors such as in-vehicle infotainment, distraction, or mental load leading. Machine learning methods are being used to optimize for the identification of these inhibiting factors. To do so, three types of data were used: biographic features, physiological signals and vehicle information of 68 participants are being utilized to identify the normal and loaded behaviors. This research, therefore, concentrates on driving behavior analysis using a new automated hybrid framework for detection of performance degradation of drivers due to distraction. The proposed model contains a hybrid of extreme learning neural network, as an ensemble learning method and evolutionary algorithms, to determine the weights of classifiers, for combining several traditional classifiers. The obtained results showcase that the proposed model yields outstanding performance than the other applied methods.
