    Harnessing the Power of Self-Training for Gaze Point Estimation in Dual Camera Transportation Datasets
    Bhagat, Hirva Alpesh (Virginia Tech, 2023-06-14)
    This thesis proposes a novel approach for efficiently estimating gaze points in dual camera transportation datasets. Traditional methods for gaze point estimation are dependent on large amounts of labeled data, which can be both expensive and time-consuming to collect. Additionally, alignment and calibration of the two camera views present significant challenges. To overcome these limitations, this thesis investigates the use of self-learning techniques such as semi-supervised learning and self-training, which can reduce the need for labeled data while maintaining high accuracy. The proposed method is evaluated on the DGAZE dataset and achieves a 57.2\% improvement in performance compared to the previous methods. This approach can prove to be a valuable tool for studying visual attention in transportation research, leading to more cost-effective and efficient research in this field.
