Many operators are working in jobs that require stressful mental tasks such as transportation supervision, vehicle driving, banking and others. Prevention of fatigued-based human error, that has been a standing challenge in such work areas, can be detected and quantified using human performance level. This paper proposes an enhanced method for operator fatigue detection based on computer-keyboard...
Physical tagging for animals has been a key requirement to discriminate their individuality. However, in small swimming animals like zebrafish, physical tagging is considered a painful, costly and a time-consuming process. In this paper, a computer-vision based method for identifying and extracting of a new feature in zebrafish (Danio rerio) is proposed as an alternative to the physical tagging. The...
Workplace fatigue increases the risk of injuries or other accidents, and there is growing interest in developing means for the early detection of the signs of exhaustion. The ubiquity of smartphone use with integrated sensors allows the possibility of detecting the early signs of fatigue. Typing, chatting, Internet surfing and track-screen gestures are the most common tasks done by smartphone users...
Fatigue assessment and quantification are essential requirements to reduce the risks that occur as a consequence of a fatigued operator. The new wearable device technology offers an accurate measuring ability to one or more of fatigue-related biological data, which helps in quantifying fatigue levels in real-life environments. This paper presents a new heart rate variability (HRV) based operator-fatigue...
Operator tiredness and fatigue pose significant safety risks in industries such as mining, trucking, aviation and air traffic control. Fatigue is a major factor behind on-the-job accidents, absenteeism and lowered productivity. The detection and prediction of fatigue is a technical challenge, confounded by the practical constraints of the working environment. This paper presents a mathematical fatigue...
