Acquiring a Human’s Attention by Analyzing the Gaze History

چکیده
Our objective is to realize wearable interfaces for expanding our information activities in daily life. To implement these interfaces, we employ vision-based systems, including a variety of camera, a head-mounted display and other visual devices. In this paper, we present two wearable vision interfaces; 1) 2D gaze-region extraction from an observed image and 2) 3D gaze-position estimation. In both of these interfaces, the eye-mark recorder is employed to obtain the history of human’s gazing directions. The information of human’s gaze is useful for analyzing human’s attention. Experimental results have demonstrated the effectiveness of the proposed interfaces.

Predicting Gaze Direction from Head Pose Yaw and Pitch
Socially assistive robots (SARs) must be able to interpret non-verbal communication from a human. A person’s gaze direction informs the observer where the visual attention is directed to. Therefore it is useful if a robot can interpret the gaze direction, so that it can assess whether a person is looking at it or some object in the environment. Gazing is a combination of head and eye movement, ...
متن کاملEffects of uncovering gaze target mismatch in human-robot joint visual attention on evaluation of understanding and impressions of robot
In joint visual attention, the robot should not only follow a human’s gaze but also identify the gaze target of the human. We believe that mutual adjustment based on the individuality of the robot is a key to identify the gaze target of the human even if the human decides the target unilaterally. In the identification, mismatches of the gaze target are uncovered. In humans, the mismatches can b...

In this paper we advocate a paradigm of socially guided machine learning, designing agents that take better advantage of the situated aspects of learning. We augmented a standard Reinforcement Learning agent with the social mechanisms of attention direction and gaze. Experiments with an interactive computer game, deployed over the World Wide Web to over 75 players, show the positive impact of t...
