According to commonly consented theories, the minimum hardware requirement for gaze tracker is one camera and two light sources to realize gaze estimation with free head movements. However, in some scenarios such as eye tracking on mobile devices, it is preferable to use less components, especially light sources. We propose a gaze estimation method with one camera and one light source. A "virtual light source" is introduced, which is geometrically placed symmetrically to the real light source with respect to the camera, and generates a "virtual glint" in the acquired image. We estimate the "virtual glint" by exploiting the relationship between the distance between two pupils and two glints in the captured image, and estimate the gaze with polynomial regression assuming two light sources are available. A new normalization factor for regression method is verified, which turns out to be practical for one-glint system. The performance is proved to be acceptable, while degradation is noticed compared to system with two actual light sources.
A vision-language AI assistant returns its answer as a stream of generated tokens. Therefore, a safety guard that watches that answer has to keep up with the stream and stop a harmful reply before a user reads it. Recent vision-language guardrails instead generate a chain of thou…
Inferring physical properties such as mass, stiffness, and elasticity from a single image is essential for simulation and embodied AI, yet most existing approaches rely on multi-view reconstruction or physics-based supervision. We introduce SiPhy, a unified framework for single-i…
Remote sensing multimodal large language models (RS-MLLMs) have improved general aerial-image understanding. However, Earth observation applications require fine-grained scenario specialization, constrained by scarce high-quality scenario data and incomplete capability coverage.…
Test-Time Tuning (TTT) on pretrained diffusion models has emerged as a powerful paradigm for video editing. However, there exists a foundational mismatch between the distribution-mapping nature of generative models and the single-point optimization of standard TTT. In this paper,…
Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) are emerging as core reasoning modules for embodied agents, yet it remains unclear how well general-purpose models can solve long-horizon embodied tasks from a single high-level instruction. We introduce MissionBench, a benchmark for missi…
Vision-language model (VLM) agents increasingly use tools to act on 3D scenes rather than only describe them. Existing 3D benchmarks score textual responses or single-object operations, leaving agent action on complete multi-object 3D scenes under evaluated. We present SceneActBe…
