UEyes

UEyes is a large eye-tracking-based dataset including 62 participants looking at 1,980 UI screenshots, covering four major UI types: webpage, desktop UI, mobile UI, and poster.

Dataset Overview

Our dataset is available here: https://zenodo.org/record/8010312

The dataset has the following file layout:

images/
eyetracker_logs/
saliency_maps/
    fixmaps_1s/
    fixmaps_3s/
    fixmaps_7s/
    heatmaps_1s/
    heatmaps_3s/
    heatmaps_7s/
    overlay_heatmaps_1s/
    overlay_heatmaps_3s/
    overlay_heatmaps_7s/
scanpaths/
    paths_1s/
    paths_3s/
    paths_7s/
info.csv
README.md

images contains all the UI screenshots used in the dataset.

eyetracker_logs contains all the raw logs outputed from the eye tracker. The csv file XX_hk0YY_fixations.csv includes the participant YY looking at the block XX. The detailed explanation of each column in the files is here: https://www.gazept.com/dl/Gazepoint_API_v2.0.pdf.

sliency_maps contains multi-duration fixation maps, heatmaps, and heatmaps overlaid with their corresponding UI images.

scanapths contains multi-duration scanpaths on UI images. Since each UI was looked at by multiple participants, we have one folder for each UI image. The folder name corresponds to the UI image name. Inside each folder, the image name N.png shows the scanpath of the participant N looking at this UI image.

info.csv contains the each image name, its category (ebpage, desktop UI, mobile UI, and poster), the block number it belongs to in our experiment, and whether it is in the trianing or test dataset.

Code

This repo has following file layout:

data_processing/
evaluation/
saliency_models/
    UMSI++/
scanpath_models/
    DeepGaze++/
    PathGAN++/
README.md

data_processing contains files to generate heatmaps and scanpaths from the raw eye tracking data.

evaluation contains the implementation all the evaluation metrics for heatmaps and scanpaths.

saliency_models contains our improved model UMSI++.

scanpath_models contains our improved model DeepGaze++ and PathGAN++.

Note: each folder has a separate README.md file to explain how to run the code.
