| Abstract | With the advent of eye gaze tracking technology, eye gaze is increasingly being used as a media interaction trigger in a variety of applications, such as eye typing, video content customization, and network video streaming based on region-of-interest (ROI). The reaction time of a gaze-based networked system, however, is in practice lower-bounded by the round trip time (RTT) of today's networks, which can be large. To improve the efficacy of gaze-based networked systems, in the paper we propose a Hidden Markov Model (HMM)-based gaze prediction strategy to predict future gaze locations to lower end-to-end reaction delay. We first design an HMM with three states corresponding to human's three major types of intrinsic eye movements. HMM parameters are obtained offline on a per-video basis during training phase. During testing phase, a window of noisy gaze observations are collected in real-time as input to a forward algorithm, which computes the most likely HMM state. Given the deduced HMM state, linear prediction is used to predict gaze location RTT seconds into the future. We demonstrate the applicability of our gaze prediction strategy by focusing on ROI-based bit allocation for network video streaming. To reduce transmission rate of a video stream without degrading viewer's perceived visual quality, we allocate more bits to encode the viewer's current spatial ROI, while devoting fewer bits in other spatial regions. The challenge lies in overcoming the delay between the time a viewer's ROI is detected by gaze tracking, to the time the effected video is encoded, delivered and displayed at the viewer's terminal. To this end, we use our proposed gaze-prediction strategy to predict future eye gaze locations, so that optimized bit allocation can be performed for future frames. Our experiments show that bit rate can be reduced by 21% without noticeable visual quality degradation when end-to-end network delay is as high as 200ms. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
