“…One study showed that TUT can be reflected in EEG power band ratios in the intervals immediately preceding and following the subject's report of a TUT (Cunningham et al, 2000). It has been proposed that such feedback could be beneficial in stimulating cognitive activity and reducing boredom during monitoring tasks (Alves & Kelsey, 2010;Frederick-Recascino & Hilscher, 2001).…”

“…These methods can be categorized into two main approaches. The first approach focuses on physical changes during fatigue, such as the inclination of the driver's head, sagging posture, and decline in gripping force on steering wheel [7,8,9,10,11,12]. These methods can be further classified as being either contact or else noncontact types in terms of the ways physical changes are measured.…”

The growing number of traffic accidents in recent years has become a serious concern to society. Accidents caused by driver's drowsiness behind the steering wheel have a high fatality rate because of the marked decline in the driver's abilities of perception, recognition, and vehicle control abilities while sleepy. Preventing such accidents caused by drowsiness is highly desirable but requires techniques for continuously detecting, estimating, and predicting the level of alertness of drivers and delivering effective feedbacks to maintain their maximum performance. This paper proposes an EEG-based drowsiness estimation system that combines electroencephalogram (EEG) log subband power spectrum, correlation analysis, principal component analysis, and linear regression models to indirectly estimate driver's drowsiness level in a virtual-reality-based driving simulator. Our results demonstrated that it is feasible to accurately estimate quantitatively driving performance, expressed as deviation between the center of the vehicle and the center of the cruising lane, in a realistic driving simulator

“…Alertness plays a key role in an operator's ability to look for and identify targets over the typical observation shift. As a result of a study of boredom in monitoring tasks (Frederick & Hilscher, 2001), it has been suggested that using biofeedback (employing advanced technical measures, such as EEG, to monitor physiological processes), and displaying this information to the operator, might be beneficial in stimulating cognitive activity. This would require using a secondary computer screen and a biofeedback device to act as a "coach or mirror, to help the participant bring his/her brain into a particular focused state with use of proper technique" (Frederick & Hilscher, 2001, p. 5.D.3-3).…”

FEATURE AT A GLANCE: Our research was aimed at validating the staffing concept for a single-operator radar station. Our review of empirical research revealed causality and impact of operator fatigue and the vigilance decrement. We concluded that the single-operator platform was appropriate for the monitoring task, and we imposed subsequent standards for staffing and shift length. We propose several methodologies for the prediction, assessment, and abatement of fatigue for extended vigilant shift work.
