• Abstract: Existing eye fixation prediction methods perform the mapping from input images to the corresponding dense fixation maps generated from raw fixation points. However, due to the stochastic nature of human fixation, the generated dense fixation maps may be a less-than-ideal representation of human fixation. To provide a robust fixation model, we introduce Gaussian Representation for eye fixation modeling. Specifically, we propose to model the eye fixation map as a mixture of probability distributions, namely a Gaussian Mixture Model. In this new representation, we use several Gaussian distribution components as an alternative to the provided fixation map, which makes the model more robust to the randomness of fixation. Meanwhile, we design our framework upon some lightweight backbones to achieve real-time fixation prediction. Experimental results on three public fixation prediction datasets (SALICON, MIT1003, TORONTO) demonstrate that our method is fast and effective.

  Existing source imaging algorithms utilize the Gaussian assumption for the observation noise to build the likelihood function for Bayesian inference. The electromagnetic measurements of brain activity are usually affected by miscellaneous artifacts, leading to a potentially non-Gaussian distribution for the observation noise. We propose a new likelihood model which is robust with respect to non-Gaussian noises.
