Abstract
Eye state identification has wide potential applications in the design of human-computer interface, recognition of facial expression, driver dowsiness detection, and so on. A novel approach to deal with the problem of detecting whether the eyes in a given face image are closed or open is presented in this paper. The projection of row wise minimum intensity and column wise minimum intensity pixel of the histogram equalized eye image is used as a feature in this work. The various tree-based classifiers such as Random Forest, Naive Bayes Tree, Random Tree, and REPTree are exploited to classify the eye as open or closed. The experimental results show that random forest classifier yields the best performance with an overall accuracy rate of 96.3% than the other classifiers.
