Real-Time Ensemble Model for Stroke, Drowsy, and Distracted Driver Detection Using Transfer Learning Models
Road safety remains a global concern, with driver-related factors like distraction, drowsiness, and medical conditions such as stroke being leading causes of accidents. In this paper, we propose a real-time ensemble learning framework that leverages transfer learning for the detection of stroke, drowsiness, and distracted driving. Our model integrates multiple Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) fine-tuned for each specific task, and employs a stacking method to combine the predictions of these models using a meta-classifier. Notably, the model is optimized to enhance stroke detection, minimizing false negatives— an essential aspect for timely medical intervention. Experimental evaluations on diverse datasets demonstrate the efficacy of our approach, achieving an overall accuracy of 92.5%. The results emphasize the model’s potential for real-time driver monitoring, offering critical safety features that could reduce accidents and save lives.
Project M.I.R.A.S
1.1 Short project summary My project involves the conceptualization and development of an innovative approach to modular self-assembling robotic systems. Through its ability to form any complex configuration, the system is highly adaptable to various scenarios and environments. Before delving deeper into the details of my project, I will provide an overview of my background and motivations. 1.2 Background Ever since I first watched the movie "Big Hero 6", I felt amazed by the applications of the so called “microbots”. From that point on, it made me always wonder what would be possible in the real world. When I did the research, I stumbled upon this field of modular robotics. Initially, I was unsure whether to embark on a project focused on electronics and robotics due to my background in programming. On the other side, this year gave me a chance to see the incredible performances of various projects at different science expos. Besides, I took part in the program of CANSAT LU and learned a lot during it, such as microchips, the control of miniature robotics, and the sensors of it. Finally, at school, I took the option Electronics where we dig into similar topics. With this accumulated knowledge and experience I felt confident enough to start this project.
