It causes a deterioration of cognitive skills, resulting in poor driving and an increase in the likelihood of traffic accidents. Prediction models allow us to avoid or at least minimize the negative consequences of stress. In this article, an algorithm based on deep learning is proposed to predict driver stress. This type of algorithm detects complex relationships among variables. At the same time, it avoids overfitting. The prediction of the upcoming stress level is made by taking into account driving behavior (acceleration, deceleration, speed) and the previous stress level.7eng© 2017 IEEE.Prediction algorithmsStress measurementHeart rate variabilityAccelerationVehicle safetyHuman factorsresearch articleTelecomunicacioneshttps://doi.org/10.1109/MVT.2017.2692059open access69476IEEE Vehicular Technology Magazine12AR/0000026369
