ABSTRACT
This paper presents a novel perspective on human attention span modeling based on gaze estimation from head pose data extracted from videos. This is achieved by devising specialized 2D visualization plots that capture gaze progression and gaze sustenance over time. In doing so, a low-resolution analysis is assumed, as is the case with most crowd surveillance videos wherein the retinal analysis and iris pattern extraction of individual subjects is made impossible. The information is useful for studies involving the random gaze behavior pattern of humans in a crowded place, or in a controlled environment in seminars or office meetings. The extraction of useful information regarding the attention span of the individual from the spatial and temporal analysis of gaze points is the subject of study in this paper. Different solutions ranging from plotting temporal gaze plots to sustained attention span graphs are investigated, and the results are compared with the existing techniques of attention span modeling and visualization.

Eye gaze and text line matching for reading analysis
UbiComp/ISWC'15 Adjunct: Adjunct Proceedings of the 2015 ACM International Joint Conference on Pervasive and Ubiquitous Computing and Proceedings of the 2015 ACM International Symposium on Wearable ComputersEye tracking data has been widely used to analyze our reading behavior. Usually, experiments are carried out with head fixations or by analyzing eye tracking data in large areas such as paragraphs. But if we want to analyze the eye gaze line by line or ...
Visual Focus of Attention in Non-calibrated Environments using Gaze Estimation
Estimating the focus of attention of a person highly depends on her/his gaze directionality. Here, we propose a new method for estimating visual focus of attention using head rotation, as well as fuzzy fusion of head rotation and eye gaze estimates, in ...
