GazeFS is a model that predicts and stabilizes target‑centered gaze trajectories using a variable‑length gaze‑head history, without requiring target information during inference. It maps this history to the next target‑center direction and a short‑horizon Search/Focus estimate, improving focus target centering and reducing residual gaze error. Across 7,960 acquisition episodes from 30 participants, GazeFS reduces Focus episode bias, dispersion, and P90 target error by 0.182°, 0.257°, and 0.400°, respectively, while maintaining high phase‑balanced accuracy and AUPRC.

The paper introduces the Causal Context-Gated Forecaster (CCGF) for predicting a driver's gaze during dashboard-mounted tracker dropouts. CCGF uses a 60‑frame history of gaze and head pose combined with DINOv3 scene features, and a learned reliability gate adjusts the influence of these inputs as the dropout progresses. Experiments on 2,047 naturalistic driving events show that live scene updates reduce median error by 33% compared to history‑only forecasting, while frozen scene input yields higher error, demonstrating the value of real‑time scene information.

The paper introduces EgoGenEval, a new benchmark that assesses the physical consistency of visual generators under ego‑motion by measuring Camera Motion Grounding and Scene State Preservation across 1,400 cases and 2,360 target views. Experiments on 16 pose‑free generators and two pose‑conditioned references show that current models struggle to maintain both camera motion and scene state simultaneously. A follow‑up study using EgoGen‑Train demonstrates that pairwise supervision does not effectively improve both metrics together, suggesting the need for a trajectory‑centric training paradigm.

The paper introduces EgoGenEval, a benchmark that assesses visual generators’ physical consistency during ego‑motion by measuring Camera Motion Grounding and Scene State Preservation across 1,400 cases and 2,360 target views. It shows that current pose‑free models struggle to maintain both camera motion and scene state, and that pairwise supervision in training does not simultaneously improve these aspects. The authors suggest a trajectory‑centric approach that couples self‑conditioned rollouts with explicit pose and visibility supervision to address these limitations.
The paper introduces Variance‑Guided Spatial Attention Fusion (VG‑SAF), a method for robust end‑to‑end driving that fuses camera and LiDAR data while handling asymmetric sensor degradation. VG‑SAF uses a physically grounded augmentor to generate dense reliability masks, modality‑specific experts to predict per‑pixel reliability scales, and a hybrid attention mechanism that gates unreliable cells and balances modalities. The approach also includes a Laplace uncertainty head to signal severe or combined sensor failures, and demonstrates improved closed‑loop robustness on the CARLA Longest6 benchmark across various degradation scenarios.

arXiv:2607. 08152v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: On the recent EyeBench benchmark, predicting reading comprehension from eye movements exposes a stark gap: text-aware models using pretrained language models reach 56--63% AUROC, while gaze-only models operate at chance.
