Research Area: Machine Learning, Computer Vision, Embedded Systems

PhD Topic: Computer Vision Approaches for Monitoring Distracted Driving Detection.

• Driver distractions can be categorised into three tracks:
• Visual Distraction – Taking eyes off the road.
• Cognitive Distraction – Taking mind off from the driving scene.
• Manual Distraction – Taking hands off from the steering wheel.
