Despite achieving impressive performance, current methods for detecting gaze targets, which depend on visual saliency and spatial scene geometry, continue to face challenges when it comes to detecting gaze targets within intricate image backgrounds. One of the primary reasons for this lies in the oversight of the intricate connection between human attention and activity cues. In this study, we introduce an innovative approach that amalgamates the visual saliency detection with the body-part & object interaction both guided by the soft gaze attention. This fusion enables precise and dependable detection of gaze targets amidst intricate image backgrounds. Our approach attains state-of-the-art performance on both the Gazefollow benchmark and the GazeVideoAttn benchmark. In comparison to recent methods that rely on intricate 3D reconstruction of a single input image, our approach, which solely leverages 2D image information, still exhibits a substantial lead across all evaluation metrics, positioning it closer to human-level performance. These outcomes underscore the potent effectiveness of our proposed method in the gaze target detection task.

We are pleased to announce the Thirty-Eighth AAAI Conference on Artificial Intelligence (AAAI-24), which will be held in Vancouver, British Columbia at the Vancouver Convention Centre – West Building from 20-27 February, 2024.

The purpose of the AAAI conference series is to promote research in Artificial Intelligence (AI) and foster scientific exchange between researchers, practitioners, scientists, students, and engineers across the entirety of AI and its affiliated disciplines. AAAI-24 will feature technical paper presentations, special tracks, invited speakers, workshops, tutorials, poster sessions, senior member presentations, competitions, and exhibit programs, and a range of other activities to be announced.

We expect for AAAI-24 to be an in-person conference – one author of all accepted papers will be expected to present work in person unless there are exceptional circumstances that prevent this.<br><br><br><br>
