Objective: Our objective is to study how to obtain features which can reflect the continuity and internal dynamic changes of electroencephalography (EEG) signals and study an effective method for fatigued driving state recognition based on the obtained features.
Approach: A method of EEG signalfeature extraction based on functional data analysis is proposed. Combined with kernel principal component analysis method, the obtained features are applied to the recognition of driver fatigue state, and a corresponding recognition model of fatigued driving state is constructed.
Main results: The recognition model is tested on the real collected driver fatigue EEG signals by selecting a suitable classifier. The test results show that the proposed driver fatigue state recognition method has good recognition effect, especially on the classifier based on decision tree, with an average accuracy of 99.50%.
Significance: The extracted features well reflect the continuityand internal dynamic changes of the EEG signals, and it is of great significance and application value to study an effective method of fatigued driver state recognition based on the features.
