Embedded Eye-Gaze Tracking On Mobile Devices
… communications through robust and non-intrusive gaze tracking techniques is increasingly important as we look toward improving Human-Computer Interaction (HCI). Traditionally, devices which are able to determine a user's gaze are large, expensive and often restrictive. This work investigates the …

Gaze tracking : seeking critical information for autonomous excavation
… inputs from a typical operator's field of view, gaze tracking is employed in solely extracting key visual information that skilled operators use in the field. Both a front facing camera depicting the world view of the subject and two eye facing cameras that track the subject's pupil movement are …

Using Gaze Tracking to Tackle Duplicate Questions on Community Based Question Answering Websites: A Case Study of Ifixit
… <p>This thesis presents novel avenues that use gaze tracking technology and behavioral testing to tackle this problem. Based on prior studies on web search behaviors, we assumed that adding contextual information (snippets) to proposed related questions displayed on the `Ask a Question' page of …

Cognitive Vulnerability to Depression: A Longitudinal Study using Eye-gaze Tracking to Study Attentional Biases in Never Depressed, Non-Relapsed, and Relapsed Individuals
Cognitive models of depression propose that attentional biases are an important cognitive vulnerability in those with a history of depression (e.g., Gotlib & Joormann, 2010; Yiend, 2010; Beck & Haigh, 2014). This study prospectively examined attentional biases in never and previously depressed …

Evaluation Toolkit for Adaptable Automatic Gaze Estimation
… observing the direction and duration of their gaze [5]. Experiments of this type currently require human annotation, or special hardware like infrared eye tracking to annotate video data of the infants’ faces. The MIT Early Childhood Cognition Lab developed the project Lookit, which allows …

Learning through looking and listening
… information about each other. In particular, gaze and speech are rich sources of information about other peoples' thoughts. This thesis investigates these modes. In the first part of the thesis, we describe our work on predicting human gaze. We introduce a series of methods to follow gaze for …

Intuitive Audio Interaction and Control in Multi-Source Environments
… how embodied interactions—primarily head tracking, alongside experiments with gaze tracking, speech commands, and audio-visual segmentation—can enhance user control over complex auditory environments. By linking head orientation to volume adjustments, we investigated whether natural, …

Enhancing Security and Privacy in Head-Mounted Augmented Reality Systems Using Eye Gaze
… of sensors such as cameras, depth sensors, eye gaze trackers, microphones, and inertial sensors. The ability of these devices to collect this information presents both challenges and opportunities to improve existing security and privacy techniques in this domain. Specifically, eye gaze tracking …

TabletGaze: Dataset and Algorithm for Unconstrained Appearance-based Gaze Estimation in Mobile Tablets
In this thesis, we study gaze estimation on tablets. Our key design goal is uncalibrated gaze estimation using the front-facing camera during natural use of tablets, where the posture and method of holding the tablet is not constrained. We collected the first large unconstrained gaze dataset of …
