Abstract

In this paper, we propose an improved face detection algorithm and determination method for drowsiness status of driver from the opening and closing frequency of the detected eye. For this purpose, face, eyes, nose, and mouth are detected based on conventional Viola-Jones face detection algorithm and spatial correlation of face. Here the spatial correlation of face is performed by DFP(Detect Face Part) based on seven characteristics. The experimental results on Caltect face image database revealed that the detection rates of noise particularly showed the improved performance of 13.78% in comparison to that of the previous Viola-Jones algorithm. Furthermore, we analyze the driver's drowsiness determination cumulative value of the eye closed state as a function of time based on SVM (Support Vector Machine) and PERCLOS(Percentage Closure of Eyes). The experimental results confirmed the usefulness of the proposed method by obtaining a driver's drowsiness determination rate of 93.28%.

본 논문은 개선된 얼굴검출 알고리즘과 눈의 개폐 빈도수로부터 운전자의 졸음을 판단하는 방법을 제안한다. 이를 위해 기존의 Viola-Jones 알고리즘과 얼굴의 공간적 상관관계를 이용하여 얼굴, 눈, 코, 입을 검출한다. 여기서, 얼굴의 공간적 상관관계는 7가지 특징에 기반한 DFP(Detect Face Part)에 의해 수행된다. Caltect 얼굴 데이터베이스에 실험을 한 결과, 특히 코 영역에 대한 검출률은 기존 Viola-Jones 알고리즘과 비교하여 13.78% 증가된 검출률을 보여주고 있다. 그리고, SVM(Support Vector Machine)과 PERCLOS(Percentage Closure of Eyes)을 사용해 시간에 따른 눈 개폐상태의 누적 값으로 운전자의 졸음 판단을 분석한다. 실험결과 93.28%의 운전자 졸음판단률을 얻어 제안된 방법의 유용성을 확인하였다.
