| Research Abstract |
This study investigated human visual scanpath features in a scene of robot hand movement. Human regions-of-interest (hROIs) were measured in psychophysical experiments and compared using a positional similarity index on the basis of scanpath theory. Results showed consistent hROI loci due to dominant top-down active looking in such a scene. This study also presented a method for detecting hROIs which used both bottom-up and top-down image processing algorithms (IPAs). Algorithmic regions-of-interest (aROIs) generated by this method were compared to the hROIs. The results showed that the IPAs have a high ability to predict hROIs and to detect actions of a partner robot.
