Abstract: The present application is applicable to the field of computer application technology, and provides methods and devices for detecting driver distraction, including: acquiring the EEG data of the driver; preprocessing the EEG data, and then inputting it into a pre-trained distraction detection model to obtain the distraction detection result of the driver; obtaining the distracted detection model by training a preset convolution-recurrent neural network using EEG sample data and corresponding distracted result label; sending the distraction detection result to an in-vehicle terminal associated with the identity information of the driver, wherein the distraction detection result is used to trigger the in-vehicle terminal to generate driving reminder information according to the distraction detection result. When detecting driver distraction, the accuracy and efficiency are improved, thereby reducing the probability of traffic accidents.
