Abstract
A vehicle system that includes a vehicle seat, wherein the vehicle seat includes a seat-back portion, a seat-bottom portion, a head rest portion, wherein the vehicle seat includes one or more acoustic sensors configured to retrieve an acoustic signal associated with a passenger seat, and a processor in communication with at least the one or more acoustic sensors, wherein the processor is programmed to identify an anomaly associated with the passenger utilizing the acoustic signal, wherein the anomaly is identified via pre-processing the acoustic signal and extracting one or more features associated with the acoustic signal in response to the pre-preprocessing and utilizing a classifier to classify one or more features associated with the acoustic signal as either a normal condition or the anomaly, and output a notification associated with the anomaly in response to identifying the anomaly.
