Nowadays in India, due to the increase in the number of accidents vehicles are being automated using a variety of Computer vision algorithms. This paper focuses on the detection of tail signals of cars under different illumination circumstances. This system is implemented using FAST and SIFT algorithm which helps to extract features from the images. The obtained features were optimized by using K-Means Clustering Algorithm. This huge feature vector is converted into 8 clusters. These optimized feature vectors were trained on five different classifiers as Decision Tree, SVM(RBF), Random Forest, and Voting Classifier. The trained data set used in this algorithm contains around 9052 images. The obtained accuracy results of different classifiers are as follows, Decision tress has 76.36%, SVM(RBF) has 77.91%, Random Forest has 87.52%, KNN has 89.72%, the Voting classifier has 86.52%. It is observed that KNN gives the highest accuracy among the five used classifiers. This has, to the best of the authors' knowledge, not been presented in literature before. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The deaths caused by road accidents are one of India's most pressing issues. The inattentiveness of the driver is responsible for almost 80% of all collisions. Mobile phone use, conversing with passengers, reaching behind the wheel to grab something, and drinking while driving are just a few of the factors that can cause a driver to become distracted. This project aims to create a reliable and effective system for detecting and classifying distracted drivers. The efficacy of CNNs in the field of computer vision was the inspiration for this paper, which proposes a paradigm based on Convolutional Neural Network which not only senses but also recognizes the driver who is distracted. For this purpose it is using a publicly available dataset from the Kaggle website as an input for this model. There are several different forms of distractions, but this study focuses on the manual distraction, which is focused on the driver's stance. The goal of this work is to keep an eye on the driver's actions and seek for diversion signs. Distractions are divided into two groups in the model: safe driving and unsafe or distracted driving. For this purpose, various architectures of CNN can be used. This work, however, employs sequential architecture and achieved the highest observed accuracy of 99% with a total of 9.5M trainable parameters. The primary goal of this research is to classify a test image into two states of the driver that have been considered. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
