Multimodal Drivers’ Emotion Recognition and Safety-Oriented Intervention for Intelligent Transportation Systems

arXiv:2608.06378v1 Announce Type: cross
Abstract: Driver emotions can affect risk perception, decision-making, and vehicle control under complex road conditions. Existing studies mainly focus on driver emotion recognition, while limited attention has been given to context-aware intervention that jointly considers driver emotion and road perception. This paper proposes a safety-prioritized multimodal driver assistance framework that analyzes speech-derived emotional cues and visual road conditions to generate structured driving interventions. The framework first provides road safety reminders and then generates emotion-aligned verbal support. We construct a multimodal dataset by aligning emotional speech signals with structured road environment descriptors and introduce the CARE (Context-Aware Road-Emotion Evaluation) score to jointly evaluate emotion recognition, risk identification, and intervention generation. Experimental results show that the proposed framework balances environmental risk reporting and emotion-aware verbal regulation, providing a feasible safety-driven direction for intelligent transportation systems.
