چکیده
Following another person's gaze in order to achieve joint attention is an important skill in human social interactions. This work analyzes geometric aspects of the gaze following problem and proposes a learning-based computational model for the emergence of gaze following skills in infants. The model acquires advanced gaze following skills by learning associations between caregiver head poses and positions in space, and utilizes depth perception to resolve spatial ambiguities. It demonstrates that the succession of different " stages " of gaze following competence observed in infants can be explained with a single, generic learning mechanism.

متن کاملVersions- und Konfigurationsmanagement in der Ausbildung in praktischer Informatik
In der Ausbildung in praktischer Informatik ist es völlig selbstverständlich, daß die Studentinnen und Studenten selbst programmieren und dabei den Umgang mit Editoren, Compilern, Testhilfen usw. erlernen. Diese “handwerklichen” Fähigkeiten sind meist kein expliziter Lehrund Prüfungsgegenstand; entweder werden sie vorausgesetzt, z.B. die Bedienung einfacher Texteditoren und Operationen mit Date...
متن کاملA computational model of the emergence of gaze following
We present a computational model of the emergence of gaze following in infant caregiver interactions. Using the model we explore the plausibility of the hypothesis that gaze following is a skill that infants acquire because they learn that monitoring their caregiver’s direction of gaze allows them to predict where interesting objects or events in their environment are. In particular, we demonst...

متن کاملEmergence of Mirror Neurons in a Model of Gaze Following
Gaze following is the ability to re-direct one’s gaze to the location where another agent is looking. We present a computational model of how human infants or other agents may acquire gaze following by learning to predict the locations of interesting sights from the looking behavior of other agents through reinforcement learning. The model accounts for many findings about the development of gaz...
