Abstract

Areas of interest (AOIs) are well-established means of providing semantic information for visualizing, analyzing, and classifying gaze data. However, the usual manual annotation of AOIs is time consuming and further impaired by ambiguities in label assignments. To address these issues, we present an interactive labeling approach that combines visualization, machine learning, and user-centered explainable annotation. Our system provides uncertainty-aware visualization to build trust in classification with an increasing number of annotated examples. It combines specifically designed EyeFlower glyphs, dimensionality reduction, and selection and exploration techniques in an integrated workflow. The approach is versatile and hardware-agnostic, supporting video stimuli from stationary and unconstrained mobile eye trackin alike. We conducted an expert review to assess labeling strategies and trust building.
