It is widely acknowledged that driver vigilance is a major contributor to trafc accidents. However, the quantitative impact of driver vigilance on driving risk has yet to be fully explored. This study aims to investigate the relationship between driver vigilance and driving risk, using data recorded from 28 drivers who maintain a speed of 80 km/h on a monotonous highway for 2 hours. The k-means and linear ftting methods are used to analyze the driving risk distribution under diferent driver vigilance states. Additionally, this study proposes a research framework for analyzing driving risk and develops three classifcation models (KNN, SVM, and DNN) to recognize the driving risk status. The results show that the frequency of low-risk incidents is negatively correlated with the driver's vigilance level, whereas the frequency of moderate-risk and high-risk incidents is positively correlated with the driver's vigilance level. The DNN model performs the best, achieving an accuracy of 0.972, recall of 0.972, precision of 0.973, and f1-score of 0.972, compared to KNN and SVM. This research could serve as a valuable reference for the design of warning systems and intelligent vehicles.Keywords Driving risk · Driver vigilance · Driving risk detection · Human–machine interaction · Deep Neural Network |
