The high incidence of traffic accidents brings immeasurable losses to life. In order to avoid such crises, researchers and automakers have used many methods to solve this problem. Among them, technology based on visual features is widely used in driver fatigue detection. As fatigue detection plays a vital role in the driving process, the high accuracy of fatigue monitoring is very important. This paper focuses on the method based on convolutional neural network to detect driver fatigue. First, in the face detection part, the Single-Shot Multi-Box Detector algorithm is used to improve the speed and accuracy of face detection to extract the eye and mouth regions; second, the VGG16 network is used to learn fatigue features, which is performed on the NTHU-Drowsy Driver Detection (NTHU-DDD) data set and the other two modified data sets Training test. The main result of this work is that the accuracy of fatigue monitoring is higher than other methods including the original method, with an accuracy rate of over 90%. And it has better generalization ability than the multi-physical feature fusion detection method. At the same time, we propose the fatigue detection method based on convolutional neural network to improve the advanced driver assistance system (ADAS) to make it more robust and reliable decision making.
