Real-Time Driver Drowsiness Detection via Lightweight CNN Benchmarking
A comprehensive performance assessment of pre-trained CNN architectures (MobileNetV3 Small, ResNet34, SqueezeNet1.1) for real-time driver drowsiness classification using the Driver Drowsiness Dataset (41,793 images). MobileNetV3 Small emerged as the optimal architecture — delivering state-of-the-art accuracy with a compact 5.93MB footprint suitable for edge devices.
