Designing a wearable driver assist system requires extraction of relevant features from physiological signals like galvanic skin response and photoplethysmogram collected from automotive drivers during real-time driving. In the discussed case, four stress-classes were identified using cascade forward neural network (CASFNN) which performed consistently with minimal intra-and inter-subject variability. Task-induced stress-trends were tracked using -based regression model with CASFNN configuration. The proposed framework will enable proactive initiation of rescue and relaxation procedures during accidents and emergencies.
This work aims at developing a safety-critical wearable computer capable of monitoring the affective state and incremental changes in stress level of automotive drivers.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
