We found that the convolutional neural network can effectively amplify the fluctuation details of the time domain data and train the pilot fatigue state recognition model. The results show that the recognition accuracy of the convolutional neural network model reaches 98%, which is 26% and 12% higher than the traditional k-nearest neighbor classification algorithm (KNN) and support vector machine (SVM) model, respectively. The recognition model based on convolutional neural network established in this paper is suitable for the recognition of pilot fatigue status.
