For this purpose, continuous observation of physiological signals of the driver provides the possibility of detecting drowsiness. A simulator based study is conducted to evaluate driver drowsiness using electroencephalographic (EEG) signal. Twenty two healthy subjects voluntarily participated in the experiment. Relative power of each EEG frequency band is computed by taking the FFT of time domain signal using Welch's method to observe the spectral variation from alert to drowsy state. Topographic maps are used to visualize the spectral changes that occur in each power band. Results show that the relative power of theta and alpha bands exhibit significant changes in drowsy state and these changes are more dominant in the occipital and parietal regions of the brain. © 2014 IEEE. date: 2014 publisher: IEEE Computer Society official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-84906350430&doi=10.1109%2fICIAS.2014.6869485&partnerID=40&md5=db89a6ea0cb7c3d77d640b244d88b995 id_number: 10.1109/ICIAS.2014.6869485 full_text_status: none publication: 2014 5th International Conference on Intelligent and Advanced Systems: Technological Convergence for Sustainable Future, ICIAS 2014 - Proceedings place_of_pub: Kuala Lumpur refereed: TRUE isbn: 9781479946549 citation: Awais, M. and Badruddin, N. and Drieberg, M.
