Passive driver identification

1. A system for passive driver identification, comprising:

an input interface configured to:

receive a collection of face data from a vehicle event recorder; and

a processor configured to:

determine a set of face data of the collection of face data that is associated with a trip;

determine a first album associated with the trip;

wherein the set of face data associated with the trip is similar to face data of other trips in the first album; and

wherein the set of face data associated with the trip is dissimilar to face data of a set of trips in a second album; and

assign an identifier that associates the trip to the first album.

2. A system as in claim 1 , wherein the input interface is further configured to receive is images.

3. A system as in claim 1 , wherein the input interface is further configured to receive time information.

4. A system as in claim 1 , wherein the input interface is further configured to receive vehicle identifier information.

5. A system as in claim 1 , wherein the input interface is further configured to receive location information.

6. A system as in claim 1 , wherein the input interface is further configured to receive ignition information.

7. A system as in claim 6 , wherein the ignition information is used to determine a start time and a stop time for a trip.

8. A system as in claim 1 , wherein a face data of the collection of face data comprises a set of numeric quantities calculated from a face image that is used to compare face images.

9. A system as in claim 1 , wherein a probability is estimated that a first person in a first image is the same as a second person in a second image.

10. A system as in claim 1 , wherein the processor is further configured to associate the identifier with a driver.

11. A system as in claim 1 , wherein determining the first album associated with the trip comprises determining an existing album associated with the trip.

12. A system as in claim 11 , wherein determining the existing album associated with the trip comprises determining a probability that the trip belongs to each existing album.

13. A system as in claim 1 , wherein the identifier is assigned to the album based at least in part on a verified association database.

14. A computer program product for passive driver identification, the computer program product being embodied in a non-transitory computer readable storage medium and comprising computer instructions for:

receiving a collection of face data from a vehicle event recorder;

determining, using a processor, a set of face data of the collection of face data that is associated with a trip;

determining a first album associated with the trip;

wherein the set of face data associated with the trip is similar to face data of other trips in the first album; and

wherein the set of face data associated with the trip is dissimilar to face data of a set of trips in a second album; and

assigning an identifier that associates the trip to the first album.

15. A method for passive driver identification, comprising:

receiving a collection of face data from a vehicle event recorder;

determining, using a processor, a set of face data of the collection of face data that is associated with a trip;

determining a first album associated with the trip;

wherein the set of face data associated with the trip is similar to face data of other trips in the first album; and

wherein the set of face data associated with the trip is dissimilar to face data of a set of trips in a second album; and

assigning an identifier that associates the trip to the first album.

16. A system as in claim 14 , wherein the verified association database stores a driver identifier associated with one or more of the following: a verified face data, a driver RFID, or a driver biometric.
