Situation awareness (SA) is generally considered as the perception, understanding, and projection of objects' properties and positions. We believe if the system can sense drivers' SA, it can appropriately provide warnings for objects that drivers are not aware of. To investigate drivers' awareness, in this study, a human-subject experiment of driving simulation was conducted for data collection. While a previous predictive model for drivers' situation awareness utilized drivers' gaze movement only, this work utilizes object properties, characteristics of human visual sensory and memory mechanism. As a result, the proposed driver SA prediction model achieves over 70 outperforms the baselines.
