Fatigue driving is one of the main causes of traffic accidents today. In this study, a fatigue driving detection system based on a 3D convolutional neural network combined with a channel attention mechanism (Squeeze-and-Excitation module) is proposed. The model obtains information of multiple channels of grayscale, gradient and optical flow from the input frame. The temporal and spatial information contained in the feature map is extracted by three-dimensional convolution, after which the feature map is fed to the attention mechanism module to optimize the feature weights. EAR and MAR are used as fatigue analysis criteria and, finally, a full binary tree SVM classifier is used to output the four driving states. In addition, this study uses the frame aggregation strategy to solve the frame loss problem well and designs application software to record the driver&rsquo:s status in real time while protecting the driver&rsquo:s facial privacy and security. Compared with other classical fatigue driving detection methods, this method extracts features from temporal and spatial dimensions and optimizes the feature weights using the attention mechanism module, which significantly improves the fatigue detection performance. The experimental results show that 95% discriminative accuracy is achieved on the FDF dataset, which can be effectively applied to driving fatigue detection.
