This paper describes preliminary results we have obtained in developing a computer vision system based on active IR illumination for real time gaze tracking for interactive graphic display. Unlike most of the existing gaze tracking techniques, which often require assuming a static head to work well and require a cumbersome calibration process fur each person, our gaze tracker can perform robust and accurate gaze estimation without calibration and under rather significant head movement. This is made possible by a new gaze calibration procedure that identifies the mapping from pupil parameters to screen coordinates using the Generalized Regression Neural Networks (GRNN). With GRNN, the mapping does not have to be an analytical function and head movement is explicitly accounted for by the gaze mapping function. Furthermore, the mapping function can generalize to other individuals not used in the training. The effectiveness of our gaze tracker is demonstrated by preliminary experiments that involve gaze-contingent interactive graphic display.

본 논문에서는 새로운 실시간 시선 추적 방식을 제안하고자한다. 기존의 시선추적 방식은 사용자가 머리를 조금만 움직여도 잘못된 결과를 얻을 수가 있었고 각각의 사용자에 대하여 교정 과정을 수행할 필요가 있었다. 따라서 제안된 시선 추적 방법은 적외선 조명과 Generalized Regression Neural Networks(GRNN)를 이용함으로써 교정 과정 없이 머리의 움직임이 큰 경우에도 견실하고 정확한 시선 추적을 가능하도록 하였다. GRNN을 사용함으로써 매핑기능은 원활하게 할 수 있었고, 머리의 움직임은 시선 매핑 기능에 의해 적절하게 시선추적에 반영되어 얼굴의 움직임이 있는 경우에도 시선추적이 가능토록 하였고, 매핑 기능을 일반화함으로써 각각의 교정과정을 생략 할 수 있게 하여 학습에 참여하지 않은 다른 사용자도 시선 추적을 가능케 하였다. 실험결과 얼굴의 움직임이 있는 경우에는 평균 90%, 다른 사용자에 대해서는 평균 85%의 시선 추적 결과를 나타내었다.

본 논문에서는 실시간으로 눈을 검출하고 추적하는 새로운 방법을 제안하고자 한다. 기존의 능동적 적외선을 이용한 눈 검출 및 추적 방법은 외부의 조명에 매우 민감하게 반응하는 문제점을 가지고 있으므로, 본 논문에서는 적외선 조명을 이용한 밝은 동공 효과와 전형적인 외형을 기반으로 한 사물 인식 기술을 결합하여 외부 조명의 간섭으로 밝은 동공 효과가 나타나지 않는 경우에도 견실하게 눈을 검출하고 추적 할 수 있는 방법을 제안한다. 눈 검출과 추적을 위해 SVM과 평균 이동 추적방법을 사용하였고, 적외선 조명과 카메라를 포함한 영상 획득 장치를 구성하여 제안된 방법이 효율적으로 다양한 조명하에서 눈 검출과 추적을 할 수 있음을 보여 주었다.

This paper is a kind of interdisciplinary studies which connect a Western film criticism with a criticism of minority literature in America. My purpose in this paper is to put on the table such a sensitive issue as racial representation and representativeness in Clint Eastwood's revisionist Western, Unforgiven. We admit generally that Western films have contributed to the white American myth-making of how the West was won. Yet, since the mid-1960s, a growing number of revisionist Westerns were produced so as to raise a question about the conventional way of looking at what happened in the American West. In order to analyze the problem inherent in the way of seeing, I pay attention to how the director Eastwood (re)presents a character named W. W. Beauchamp in the film. Presumably, what the character Beauchamp misses in the West can be overlapped with what ordinary film viewers miss in the genre of Westerns. Given this, interrogating both what Beauchamp sees and what he misses within the movie, I attempt to disclose how much of the West has been unseen from his biased viewpoint. By doing so, I argue why it is important to focus on some passing scenes that touch on the irony of a Native American train passenger, the gaze of the mute Native American housewife, the abrupt disappearance of Asian American men, the lynching of African-American ex-cowboy, and the self-determination of the saloon prostitutes. Then I hope that, conservative and mainstream though the director is, his way of revising the Western is not quite far from my minority-conscious critical position.
