As Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS) continue to evolve, the quest for improving road safety and transportation efficiency has gained renewed emphasis. One of the pivotal aspects in this endeavor is the detection and analysis of driver behavior. Recognizing signs of fatigue, distraction, or inattentiveness is critical in enhancing road safety and optimizing traffic flow. In this paper, we present a pioneering approach to driver behavior detection within the realm of ITS using deep learning models in the Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) framework. Our research focuses on the discernment of critical behaviors such as eye closure, open-eye state, yawning, and non-yawning instances. With an unwavering commitment to road safety and transportation efficiency, we’ve harnessed the power of deep learning to design, develop, and train an exceptionally accurate model. Through rigorous evaluation, we achieved an impressive 94% accuracy. Our findings unveil the potential of CPS-based solutions for real-time driver behavior monitoring, providing a foundation for safer roadways and more streamlined traffic management. The proposed deep learning model offers robust and accurate predictions, enabling timely responses to various driving conditions. This research significantly advances the field of driver behavior analysis within the context of intelligent transportation systems, with broad implications for road safety and traffic management.
