TextGaze uses LVLM for gaze target estimation · arXiv cs.CV

Researchers have introduced TextGaze, a novel architecture for gaze target estimation that utilizes a Large Vision-Language Model (LVLM) for semantic guidance. This approach aims to overcome the limitations of existing methods, which either require extensive annotations or focus solely on low-level visual saliency. TextGaze extracts visual features and employs an LVLM to generate gaze-aligned textual cues, processed through a transformer-based fusion module with hierarchical text supervision. The model efficiently predicts gaze heatmaps and in-/out-of-frame status, demonstrating competitive performance and robust cross-dataset generalization on four mainstream datasets without additional fine-tuning. AI

IMPACT This research offers a more efficient and generalizable approach to gaze estimation, potentially improving human-computer interaction and accessibility tools.

    TextGaze: Prompting Gaze Target Estimation with Textual Scene Cues

    arXiv:2607.10130v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Gaze target estimation aims to infer the position of a person's gaze within a scene. Within mainstream design logic, multi-branch methods require extra supervision and annotations, while streamlined designs prioritize low-level visu…
