Many road accidents occur due to distracted drivers. Today, driver monitoring is essential even for the latest autonomous vehicles to alert distracted drivers in order to take over control of the vehicle in case of emergency. In this paper, a spatio-temporal approach is applied to classify drivers distraction level and movement decisions using convolutional neural networks (CNNs). We approach this problem as action recognition to benefit from temporal information in addition to spatial information. Our approach relies on features extracted from sparsely selected frames of an action using a pre-trained BN-Inception network. Experiments show that our approach outperforms the state-of-the art results on the Distracted Driver Dataset (96.31%), with an accuracy of 99.10% for 10-class classification while providing real-time performance. We also analyzed the impact of fusion using RGB and optical flow modalities with a very recent data level fusion strategy. The results on the Distracted Driver and Brain4Cars datasets show that fusion of these modalities further increases the accuracy.

Driver drowsiness increases crash risk, leading to substantial road trauma each year. Drowsiness detection methods have received considerable attention, but few studies have investigated the implementation of a detection approach on a mobile phone. P hone applications reduce the need for specialised hardware and hence, enable a cost-effective roll-out of the technology across the driving population. While it has been shown that three-dimensional (3D) operations are more suitable for spatiotemporal feature learning, current methods for drowsiness detection commonly use frame-based, multi-step approaches. However, computationally expensive techniques that achieve superior results on action recognition benchmarks (e.g. 3D convolutions, optical flow extraction) create bottlenecks for real-time, safety-critical applications on mobile devices. Here, we show how depthwise separable 3D convolutions, combined with an early fusion of spatial and temporal information, can achieve a balance between high prediction accuracy and real-time inference requirements. In particular, increased accuracy is achieved when assessment requires motion information, for example, when sunglasses conceal the eyes. Further, a custom TensorFlow-based smartphone application shows the true impact of various approaches on inference times and demonstrates the effectiveness of real-time monitoring based on out-of-sample data to alert a drowsy driver. Our model is pre-trained on ImageNet and Kinetics and fine-tuned on a publicly available Driver Drowsiness Detection dataset. Fine-tuning on large naturalistic driving datasets could further improve accuracy to obtain robust in-vehicle performance. Overall, our research is a step towards practical deep learning applications, potentially preventing micro-sleeps and reducing road trauma.
Vision is the richest and most cost-effective technology for Driver Monitoring Systems (DMS), especially after the recent success of Deep Learning (DL) methods. The lack of sufficiently large and comprehensive datasets is currently a bottleneck for t he progress of DMS development, crucial for the transition of automated driving from SAE Level-2 to SAE Level-3. In this paper, we introduce the Driver Monitoring Dataset (DMD), an extensive dataset which includes real and simulated driving scenarios: distraction, gaze allocation, drowsiness, hands-wheel interaction and context data, in 41 hours of RGB, depth and IR videos from 3 cameras capturing face, body and hands of 37 drivers. A comparison with existing similar datasets is included, which shows the DMD is more extensive, diverse, and multi-purpose. The usage of the DMD is illustrated by extracting a subset of it, the dBehaviourMD dataset, containing 13 distraction activities, prepared to be used in DL training processes. Furthermore, we propose a robust and real-time driver behaviour recognition system targeting a real-world application that can run on cost-efficient CPU-only platforms, based on the dBehaviourMD. Its performance is evaluated with different types of fusion strategies, which all reach enhanced accuracy still providing real-time response.
In recent years, a number of approaches based on 2D or 3D convolutional neural networks (CNN) have emerged for video action recognition, achieving state-of-the-art results on several large-scale benchmark datasets. In this paper, we carry out in-dept h comparative analysis to better understand the differences between these approaches and the progress made by them. To this end, we develop an unified framework for both 2D-CNN and 3D-CNN action models, which enables us to remove bells and whistles and provides a common ground for fair comparison. We then conduct an effort towards a large-scale analysis involving over 300 action recognition models. Our comprehensive analysis reveals that a) a significant leap is made in efficiency for action recognition, but not in accuracy; b) 2D-CNN and 3D-CNN models behave similarly in terms of spatio-temporal representation abilities and transferability. Our codes are available at https://github.com/IBM/action-recognition-pytorch.
Existing methods for instance segmentation in videos typi-cally involve multi-stage pipelines that follow the tracking-by-detectionparadigm and model a video clip as a sequence of images. Multiple net-works are used to detect objects in individual fr ames, and then associatethese detections over time. Hence, these methods are often non-end-to-end trainable and highly tailored to specific tasks. In this paper, we pro-pose a different approach that is well-suited to a variety of tasks involvinginstance segmentation in videos. In particular, we model a video clip asa single 3D spatio-temporal volume, and propose a novel approach thatsegments and tracks instances across space and time in a single stage. Ourproblem formulation is centered around the idea of spatio-temporal em-beddings which are trained to cluster pixels belonging to a specific objectinstance over an entire video clip. To this end, we introduce (i) novel mix-ing functions that enhance the feature representation of spatio-temporalembeddings, and (ii) a single-stage, proposal-free network that can rea-son about temporal context. Our network is trained end-to-end to learnspatio-temporal embeddings as well as parameters required to clusterthese embeddings, thus simplifying inference. Our method achieves state-of-the-art results across multiple datasets and tasks. Code and modelsare available at https://github.com/sabarim/STEm-Seg.
Localizing persons and recognizing their actions from videos is a challenging task towards high-level video understanding. Recent advances have been achieved by modeling direct pairwise relations between entities. In this paper, we take one step furt her, not only model direct relations between pairs but also take into account indirect higher-order relations established upon multiple elements. We propose to explicitly model the Actor-Context-Actor Relation, which is the relation between two actors based on their interactions with the context. To this end, we design an Actor-Context-Actor Relation Network (ACAR-Net) which builds upon a novel High-order Relation Reasoning Operator and an Actor-Context Feature Bank to enable indirect relation reasoning for spatio-temporal action localization. Experiments on AVA and UCF101-24 datasets show the advantages of modeling actor-context-actor relations, and visualization of attention maps further verifies that our model is capable of finding relevant higher-order relations to support action detection. Notably, our method ranks first in the AVA-Kineticsaction localization task of ActivityNet Challenge 2020, out-performing other entries by a significant margin (+6.71mAP). Training code and models will be available at https://github.com/Siyu-C/ACAR-Net.
