Owl and Lizard: Patterns of Head Pose and Eye Pose in Driver Gaze Classification
Accurate, robust, inexpensive gaze tracking in the car can help keep a driver
safe by facilitating the more effective study of how to improve (1) vehicle
interfaces and (2) the design of future Advanced Driver Assistance Systems. In
this paper, we estimate head pose and eye pose from monocular video using
methods developed extensively in prior work and ask two new interesting
questions. First, how much better can we classify driver gaze using head and
eye pose versus just using head pose? Second, are there individual-specific
gaze strategies that strongly correlate with how much gaze classification
improves with the addition of eye pose information? We answer these questions
by evaluating data drawn from an on-road study of 40 drivers. The main insight
of the paper is conveyed through the analogy of an "owl" and "lizard" which
describes the degree to which the eyes and the head move when shifting gaze.
When the head moves a lot ("owl"), not much classification improvement is
attained by estimating eye pose on top of head pose. On the other hand, when
the head stays still and only the eyes move ("lizard"), classification accuracy
increases significantly from adding in eye pose. We characterize how that
accuracy varies between people, gaze strategies, and gaze regions.Comment: Accepted for Publication in IET Computer Vision. arXiv admin note:

How Advanced Change Patterns Impact the Process of Process Modeling
Process model quality has been an area of considerable research efforts. In
this context, correctness-by-construction as enabled by change patterns
provides promising perspectives. While the process of process modeling (PPM)
based on change primitives has been thoroughly investigated, only little is
known about the PPM based on change patterns. In particular, it is unclear what
set of change patterns should be provided and how the available change pattern
set impacts the PPM. To obtain a better understanding of the latter as well as
the (subjective) perceptions of process modelers, the arising challenges, and
the pros and cons of different change pattern sets we conduct a controlled
experiment. Our results indicate that process modelers face similar challenges
irrespective of the used change pattern set (core pattern set versus extended
pattern set, which adds two advanced change patterns to the core patterns set).
An extended change pattern set, however, is perceived as more difficult to use,
yielding a higher mental effort. Moreover, our results indicate that more
advanced patterns were only used to a limited extent and frequently applied
incorrectly, thus, lowering the potential benefits of an extended pattern set
