Description
Summary:	Driving event recognition plays a crucial role in understanding and enhancing road safety. This research focuses on developing efficient time-series based models for Fall detection in two-wheelers. Traditional machine learning models proved inadequate in accurately classifying Fall scenarios due to their inability to capture temporal transitions in kinematic states. To address this limitation, time-series based Deep Learning (DL) models are proposed, utilizing Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) networks. These networks enable direct learning from raw time series data, eliminating the need for manual feature engineering. Additionally, Bi-LSTMs were employed to capture contextual information from both past and future timesteps, further improving the model's understanding of driving events. The architecture was enhanced with an attention mechanism to boost accuracy. Experimental results showcased that the proposed Bi-LSTM model achieved an overall accuracy of 97%, with a specific accuracy of approximately 92% in detecting Fall scenarios. This research contributes to the development of an accurate Time-series based system for Fall detection, facilitating improved road safety in the context of two-wheelers.
