提升视觉注视追踪的不确定性估计精度,解决模型过拟合问题。

Enhancing accuracy of uncertainty estimation in appearance-based gaze tracking with probabilistic evaluation and calibration

  • 从概率角度设计严格评估指标,量化不确定性预测能力。
  • 提出概率校准策略,纠正训练模型产生的不确定性偏差。
  • 在两个不同数据集上验证,显著改善不确定性估计可靠性。

准确掌握基于外观的注视追踪中的不确定性对保障下游应用的可靠性至关重要。由于缺乏个体不确定性标签,现有不确定性感知方法采用概率模型,依据训练数据分布推断不确定性。然而缺乏约束会导致模型产生偏差并过拟合训练数据,部署时性能下降。本文首先从概率视角提出严格的评估指标,通过比较预测与观测的覆盖概率实现不确定性推断的定量评估;随后提出基于概率校准的修正策略,缓解训练模型估计的不确定性偏差;最后在两个具有不同图像特征的主流注视估计数据集上开展实验,验证了该策略的有效性。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Accurately knowing uncertainties in appearance-based gaze tracking is critical for ensuring reliable downstream applications. Due to the lack of individual uncertainty labels, current uncertainty-aware approaches adopt probabilistic models to acquire uncertainties by following distributions in the training dataset. Without regulations, this approach lets the uncertainty model build biases and overfits the training data, leading to poor performance when deployed. We first presented a strict proper evaluation metric from the probabilistic perspective based on comparing the coverage probability between prediction and observation to provide quantitative evaluation for better assessment on the inferred uncertainties. We then proposed a correction strategy based on probability calibration to mitigate biases in the estimated uncertainties of the trained models. Finally, we demonstrated the effectiveness of the correction strategy with experiments performed on two popular gaze estimation datasets with distinctive image characteristics caused by data collection settings.
