Gaze Perception in Humans and CNN-Based Model

17 Apr 2021  ·  Nicole X. Han, William Yang Wang, Miguel P. Eckstein ·

Making accurate inferences about other individuals' locus of attention is essential for human social interactions and will be important for AI to effectively interact with humans. In this study, we compare how a CNN (convolutional neural network) based model of gaze and humans infer the locus of attention in images of real-world scenes with a number of individuals looking at a common location. We show that compared to the model, humans' estimates of the locus of attention are more influenced by the context of the scene, such as the presence of the attended target and the number of individuals in the image.
