Abstract: Disclosed in the present invention is an optimized driver fatigue monitoring method. On the basis of performing feature extraction on driving images by means of face detection, face position prediction is incorporated, and whether to perform feature extraction on the driving images by means of face detection or perform feature extraction on the driving images by means of face prediction is determined on the basis of a prediction confidence level of a predicted face position. Only when the prediction confidence level of the predicted face position does not reach a confidence level threshold, face prediction is used to perform feature extraction on the driving images, thereby reducing the number of times of performing feature extraction on the driving images by means of face prediction, and saving computing power and time. Further disclosed is an apparatus for implementing the driver fatigue monitoring method.
