Q&A

What is YOLO Object Detection?

—YOLO (You Only Look Once) is an object detection algorithm that can detect multiple objects in an image simultaneously.

What is the COCO dataset?

—The COCO (Common Objects in Context) dataset is a large-scale object detection, segmentation, and captioning dataset, consisting of images from everyday scenes.

How is the YOLO model fine-tuned for drowsiness detection?

—The YOLO model is trained on a drowsiness dataset, allowing it to specifically detect signs of drowsiness in real-time.

How can the drowsiness detection be implemented in vehicles?

—The drowsiness detection model can be integrated into a car or vehicle system, triggering alarms or alerts to prevent accidents caused by drowsy driving.

Can the drowsiness detection model be used for other applications?

—Yes, the same methodology can be applied to other areas where real-time drowsiness detection is important, such as security systems or monitoring operations.
