Abstract: Driver drowsiness detection using videos/images is one of the most essential areas in today's time for driver safety. The development of deep learning techniques, notably Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN), applied in computer vision applications such as drowsiness detection, has shown promising results due to the tremendous increase in technology in the recent few decades. Eyes that are closed or blinking excessively, yawning, nodding, and occlusion are all key aspects of drowsiness. In this work, we have applied four different Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) techniques on the YawDD dataset to detect and examine the extent of drowsiness depending on the yawning frequency with specific pose and occlusion variation. Preliminary computational results show that our proposed Ensemble Convolutional Neural Network (ECNN) outperformed the traditional CNN-based approach by achieving an F1 score of 0.935, whereas the other three CNN, such as CNN1, CNN2, and CNN3 approaches gained 0.92, 0.90, and 0.912 F1 scores, respectively.
