• Title: Learning from Observer Gaze:Zero-Shot Attention Prediction Oriented by Human-Object Interaction Recognition
• Authors: Yuchen Zhou, Linkai Liu, Chao Gou,
• Abstract summary: We first collect a novel gaze fixation dataset named IG, comprising 530,000 fixation points across 740 diverse interaction categories. We then introduce the zero-shot interaction-oriented attention prediction task ZeroIA, which challenges models to predict visual cues for interactions not encountered during training. Thirdly, we present the Interactive Attention model IA, designed to emulate human observers cognitive processes to tackle the ZeroIA problem.

• Abstract: Most existing attention prediction research focuses on salient instances like humans and objects. However, the more complex interaction-oriented attention, arising from the comprehension of interactions between instances by human observers, remains largely unexplored. This is equally crucial for advancing human-machine interaction and human-centered artificial intelligence. To bridge this gap, we first collect a novel gaze fixation dataset named IG, comprising 530,000 fixation points across 740 diverse interaction categories, capturing visual attention during human observers cognitive processes of interactions. Subsequently, we introduce the zero-shot interaction-oriented attention prediction task ZeroIA, which challenges models to predict visual cues for interactions not encountered during training. Thirdly, we present the Interactive Attention model IA, designed to emulate human observers cognitive processes to tackle the ZeroIA problem. Extensive experiments demonstrate that the proposed IA outperforms other state-of-the-art approaches in both ZeroIA and fully supervised settings. Lastly, we endeavor to apply interaction-oriented attention to the interaction recognition task itself. Further experimental results demonstrate the promising potential to enhance the performance and interpretability of existing state-of-the-art HOI models by incorporating real human attention data from IG and attention labels generated by IA.

  Human-Object Interaction (HOI) detection is a core task for human-centric image understanding. Recent one-stage methods adopt a transformer decoder to collect image-wide cues that are useful for interaction prediction. Traditional two-stage methods benefit significantly from their ability to compose interaction features in a disentangled and explainable manner.

  We propose a Human and Object Disentangling Network (HODN) to model the Human-Object Interaction (HOI) relationships explicitly. Considering that human features are more contributive to interaction, we propose a Human-Guide Linking method to make sure the interaction decoder focuses on the human-centric regions. Our proposed method achieves competitive performance on both the V-COCO and the HICO-Det Linking datasets.

• Weakly-Supervised HOI Detection from Interaction Labels Only and Language/Vision-Language Priors [36.75629570208193]
  Human-object interaction (HOI) detection aims to extract interacting human-object pairs and their interaction categories from a given natural image. In this paper, we tackle HOI detection with the weakest supervision setting in the literature, using only image-level interaction labels. We first propose an approach to prune non-interacting human and object proposals to increase the quality of positive pairs within the bag, exploiting the grounding capability of the vision-language model. Second, we use a large language model to query which interactions are possible between a human and a given object category, in order to force the model not to put emphasis

  We propose training deep network models to predict system-level states directly from generic graphical features from the entire view. Because the resulting predictive models are not based on human-understood predictors, we use explanatory modules. This represents an example of augmented intelligence in behavioral ecology -- knowledge co-creation in a human-AI team.
