Methods for comparing scanpaths and saliency maps: strengths and weaknesses.
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this article, we are interested in the computational modeling of visual attention. We report methods commonly used to assess the performance of these kinds of models. We survey the strengths and weaknesses of common assessment methods based on diachronic eye-tracking data. We then illustrate the use of some methods to benchmark computational models of visual attention.

Saccadic model of eye movements for free-viewing condition
In this paper, we propose a new framework to predict visual scanpaths of observers while they freely watch a visual scene. The visual fixations are inferred from bottom-up saliency and several oculomotor biases. Bottom-up saliency is represented by a saliency map whereas the oculomotor biases (saccade amplitudes and saccade orientations) are modeled using public eye tracking datasets. Our exper...
متن کاملDecoding What People See from Where They Look: Predicting Visual Stimuli from Scanpaths
Saliency algorithms are applied to correlate with the overt attentional shifts, corresponding to eye movements, made by observers viewing an image. In this study, we investigated if saliency maps could be used to predict which image observers were viewing given only scanpath data. The results were strong: in an experiment with 441 trials, each consisting of 2 images with scanpath data pooled ov...
متن کاملComparing Strengths and Weaknesses of Learning Theories
Introduction: Medical education is changing. Therefore, teachers need to evaluate their performance and try to maximize learning. Learning theories can provide insight in this important issue. This study aimed to review the strengths and weaknesses of learning theories including behavioral, cognitive and humanistic theories. Methods: In this study, some literatures related to learning theories...
متن کاملReal and predicted influence of image manipulations on eye movements during scene recognition.
In this paper, we investigate how controlled changes to image properties and orientation affect eye movements for repeated viewings of images of natural scenes. We make changes to images by manipulating low-level image content (such as luminance or chromaticity) and/or inverting the image. We measure the effects of these manipulations on human scanpaths (the spatial and chronological path of fi...
متن کاملCompressed-Sampling-Based Image Saliency Detection in the Wavelet Domain
When watching natural scenes, an overwhelming amount of information is delivered to the Human Visual System (HVS). The optic nerve is estimated to receive around 108 bits of information a second. This large amount of information can’t be processed right away through our neural system. Visual attention mechanism enables HVS to spend neural resources efficiently, only on the selected parts of the...
