EgoHRV is a method that estimates heart rate variability (HRV) and heart rate (HR) from the gaze cameras in egocentric headsets. It uses a 3D backbone and a low–high decomposition module to extract the blood volume pulse signal from gaze video, and aligns frequency‑domain representations of contact‑based and camera‑derived signals through cross‑domain pretraining. The approach achieves state‑of‑the‑art accuracy for HR and HRV estimation and, when integrated into EgoExo4D’s proficiency estimator, improves accuracy by 17.8%.

GazeFlow is a new framework for egocentric gaze prediction that models gaze as a joint distribution of temporal positions conditioned on both top‑down task cues and bottom‑up visual saliency. It employs conditional flow matching to iteratively transform Gaussian noise into realistic gaze trajectories, using a velocity field informed by video‑encoded visual features and global task queries. On standard benchmarks, GazeFlow outperforms existing methods on per‑frame metrics and produces trajectories that better reflect human gaze dynamics.
OpenSAL360 is an open‑source platform that enables scalable, low‑cost collection of 360° video saliency data using only a standard screen, mouse, and internet connection. It bypasses the need for VR headsets, allowing parallel data collection from crowdsourced assessors. The authors validated the protocol against seven VR eye‑tracking datasets, performed ablation studies, and released a new dataset of 500 omnidirectional videos annotated by over 2,000 assessors, the largest in the field to date.
EyeMakeYou is a multi‑conditional denoising diffusion model that synthesizes high‑frequency, subject‑specific gaze velocity sequences. It conditions on identity, task, and self‑reported subjective states (difficulty, mental tiredness, eye tiredness) to generate realistic 5‑second, 1000‑Hz bivariate gaze data from a reference trajectory. Experiments on the GazeBase dataset show that EyeMakeYou outperforms existing generative methods in spatial accuracy and real‑synthetic similarity while preserving task‑dependent associations with subjective reports.
The paper investigates what information is captured by egocentric video embeddings from models such as VideoMAEv2, CLIP, DINOv2, and VC-1, finding that the leading principal components largely reflect where the head‑mounted camera is looking. It also explores how to combine these video embeddings with body‑worn inertial sensor data for human activity recognition, showing that propagating inertial predictions over a video‑based graph can significantly improve classification performance (macro‑F1 from 0.648 to 0.852). The study demonstrates that video and inertial modalities play distinct roles—video identifies similar clips within a set, while inertial data labels the activities—yet fusing them directly in a single classifier or adding inertial edges to the graph does not yield better results.
