Diffusion models generate realistic eye-gaze trajectories for research and biometrics

Researchers have developed new diffusion models for generating realistic eye-gaze trajectories, addressing the challenge of expensive and privacy-constrained data collection. One model focuses on generating raw 2D gaze positions, achieving high accuracy in kinematic features and fixation duration. Another model synthesizes high-frequency gaze velocity sequences, conditioned on identity, task, and subjective states, showing promise for applications like eye movement biometrics. AI

IMPACT Advances in synthetic gaze data generation could reduce reliance on expensive hardware and enable new applications in biometrics and human-computer interaction.

RANK_REASON Two research papers detailing novel diffusion models for eye-gaze trajectory generation.
