Accurate detection of a drivers attention state can help develop assistive technologies that respond to unexpected hazards in real time and therefore improve road safety. This study compares the performance of several attention classifiers trained on participants brain activity. Participants performed a driving task in an immersive simulator where the car randomly deviated from the cruising lane. They had to correct the deviation and their response time was considered as an indicator of attention level. Participants repeated the task in two sessions; in one session they received kinesthetic feedback and in another session no feedback. Using their EEG signals, we trained three attention classifiers; a support vector machine (SVM) using EEG spectral band powers, and a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) using either spectral features or the raw EEG data. Our results indicated that the CNN model trained on raw EEG data obtained under kinesthetic feedback achieved the highest accuracy (89 resulted in the best performances, inter-subject transfer learning still performed high (75 Interface (BCI) systems. Our findings show that CNN and raw EEG signals can be employed for effective training of a passive BCI for real-time attention classification.
