Learning gaze biases with head motion for head pose-free gaze estimation

作者:

Highlights:

• Appearance-based gaze estimation with head motion is decomposed into subproblems.

• Subproblems are solved by compensating for two types of estimation biases.

• The compensation method only requires a 5-second video for training.

• Eye images for different head poses are aligned via rectification and optimization.

• We achieve a gaze estimation accuracy of 3° with free head motion.
