Rendering synthetic ground truth images for eye tracker evaluation
Lech Świrski, Neil A. Dodgson · 2014
When evaluating eye tracking algorithms, a recurring issue is what metric to use and what data to compare against. User studies are informative when considering the entire eye tracking system, however they are often unsatisfactory for evaluating the gaze estimation algorithm in isolation. This is particularly an issue when evaluating a system's component parts, such as pupil detection, pupil-to-gaze mapping or head pose estimation.
