Abstract In this paper, we evaluated a variety of features acquired from data recorded from single tri-axial accelerometer placed on the subjects’ wrist in order to differentiate among driving events. Results obtained from 12 experienced drivers assessed in driving simulators with wristband revealed features that might be relevant for future driver’s activity recognition. Our preliminary exploratory data analysis showed that the most informative features for discriminative analysis among driving tasks are entropy and average spectral energy of the resultant acceleration.
