Transformer model predicts driver's gaze object directly

Researchers have developed TransGaze-Object, a novel framework utilizing Transformer-based cross-attention to predict a driver's gaze object directly from facial and scene features. This approach bypasses the intermediate step of estimating a point-of-gaze, leading to more semantically meaningful attention representations. The framework achieves 60% accuracy in gaze-object prediction, a significant improvement over traditional point-of-gaze association methods, and demonstrates a substantial reduction in error rates. AI

IMPACT This research could enhance driver monitoring systems and autonomous vehicle perception by providing more accurate and semantically rich insights into driver attention.

    TransGaze-Object: Transformer Based Driver Gaze Object Prediction Framework in Real Driving

    arXiv:2609.10139v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Driver gaze provides information regarding driver visual attention and situational awareness to the surrounding traffic. Existing driver gaze estimation studies represent gaze in terms of gaze zone or gaze vector/point-of-gaze (PoG)…
