Komogortsev Biometric Identification Via An Oculomotor Plant Mathematical ModelKalle
There has been increased interest in reliable, non-intrusive methods of biometric identification due to the growing emphasis on security and increasing prevalence of identity theft. This paper presents a new biometric approach that involves an estimation of the unique oculomotor plant (OP) or eye globe muscle parameters from an eye movement trace. These parameters model individual properties of the human eye, including neuronal control signal, series elasticity, length tension, force velocity, and active tension. These properties can be estimated for each extraocular muscle, and have been shown to differ between individuals. We describe the algorithms used in our approach and the results of an experiment with 41 human subjects tracking a jumping dot on a screen. Our results show improvement over existing eye movement biometric identification methods. The technique of using Oculomotor Plant Mathematical Model (OPMM) parameters to model the individual eye provides a number of advantages for biometric identification: it includes both behavioral and physiological human attributes, is difficult to counterfeit, non-intrusive, and could easily be incorporated into existing biometric systems to provide an extra layer of security.
Kinnunen Towards Task Independent Person Authentication Using Eye Movement Si...Kalle
We propose a person authentication system using eye movement signals. In security scenarios, eye-tracking has earlier been used for gaze-based password entry. A few authors have also used physical features of eye movement signals for authentication in a taskdependent
scenario with matched training and test samples. We propose and implement a task-independent scenario whereby the training and test samples can be arbitrary. We use short-term eye gaze direction to construct feature vectors which are modeled using Gaussian mixtures. The results suggest that there are personspecific features in the eye movements that can be modeled in a task-independent manner. The range of possible applications extends
beyond the security-type of authentication to proactive and user-convenience systems.

iMotions White Paper: Validation of Emotion Evaluation System embedded in Att...iMotionsEyeTracking
Abstract: This paper describes how Attention Tool® can be used to measure human emotions and which statistical outputs are provided in the tool for each tested visual stimulus. The method in Attention Tool for measuring the emotional strength, also known as physiological arousal, is based on pupil size variation, eye blink pattern and gaze behavior. Furthermore, the method is evaluated together with galvanic skin response (GSR) recordings that is a well-known and widely used method for measuring arousal. The comparison of these two methods shows that Attention Tool is just as good an evaluator of physiological arousal as the currently used GSR.

Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.
"Impact of front-end architecture on development cost", Viktor TurskyiFwdays
I have heard many times that architecture is not important for the front-end. Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.

How Race, Age and Gender Shape Attitudes Towards Mental HealthThinkNow
Mental health has been in the news quite a bit lately. Dozens of U.S. states are currently suing Meta for contributing to the youth mental health crisis by inserting addictive features into their products, while the U.S. Surgeon General is touring the nation to bring awareness to the growing epidemic of loneliness and isolation. The country has endured periods of low national morale, such as in the 1970s when high inflation and the energy crisis worsened public sentiment following the Vietnam War. The current mood, however, feels different. Gallup recently reported that national mental health is at an all-time low, with few bright spots to lift spirits.
To better understand how Americans are feeling and their attitudes towards mental health in general, ThinkNow conducted a nationally representative quantitative survey of 1,500 respondents and found some interesting differences among ethnic, age and gender groups.
Technology
For example, 52% agree that technology and social media have a negative impact on mental health, but when broken out by race, 61% of Whites felt technology had a negative effect, and only 48% of Hispanics thought it did.
While technology has helped us keep in touch with friends and family in faraway places, it appears to have degraded our ability to connect in person. Staying connected online is a double-edged sword since the same news feed that brings us pictures of the grandkids and fluffy kittens also feeds us news about the wars in Israel and Ukraine, the dysfunction in Washington, the latest mass shooting and the climate crisis.
Hispanics may have a built-in defense against the isolation technology breeds, owing to their large, multigenerational households, strong social support systems, and tendency to use social media to stay connected with relatives abroad.
Age and Gender
When asked how individuals rate their mental health, men rate it higher than women by 11 percentage points, and Baby Boomers rank it highest at 83%, saying it’s good or excellent vs. 57% of Gen Z saying the same.
Gen Z spends the most amount of time on social media, so the notion that social media negatively affects mental health appears to be correlated. Unfortunately, Gen Z is also the generation that’s least comfortable discussing mental health concerns with healthcare professionals. Only 40% of them state they’re comfortable discussing their issues with a professional compared to 60% of Millennials and 65% of Boomers.
Race Affects Attitudes
As seen in previous research conducted by ThinkNow, Asian Americans lag other groups when it comes to awareness of mental health issues. Twenty-four percent of Asian Americans believe that having a mental health issue is a sign of weakness compared to the 16% average for all groups. Asians are also considerably less likely to be aware of mental health services in their communities (42% vs. 55%) and most likely to seek out information on social media (51% vs. 35%).

“Look
into
a
person’s
pupils,
he
cannot
hide
himself.” WHY
MEASURE
PUPIL
DYNAMICS
(Confucius,
551-‐478
B.C.)
It
is
found
that
the
PUPIL
dilates
and
subtracts
not
only
from
light,
but
also
as
a
consequence
of
emo8ons
(Hess,
1972).
Pupil
dila8on
has
been
coupled
with
ac8va8on
of
the
sympathe8c
nervous
system
(Granholm
&
Steinhauer,
2004;
Steinhauer
et
al.,
1983).
However,
the
rela8onship
is
complex
because
pupil
size
is
also
related
to
cogni8ve
processing
load
(Beaey
&
Lucero-‐Wagoner,
2000;
Staners
et
al.,
1979)
and
the
amount
of
light
or
hue
in
visual
s8muli
(Granholm
&
Steinhauer;
2004).
The
iMo8ons
system
iden8fies
several
emo8onal
fingerprints
from
the
pupil
based
on
prior
and
proprietary
knowledge.
The
iMo8ons
system
compensates
for
reac8ons
caused
by
the
light
reflex
and
because
the
system
determines
the
emo8onal
reac8on
pre-‐cogni8ve
the
impact
from
the
cogni8ve

Percep8on
and
the

have
been
WHY

BLINK
CHARACTERISTICS
extensively
studied
the
last
100
years!
BLINK
is
also
related
to
emo8onal
as
well
as
cogni8ve
reac8ons,
for
example
with
defensive
reac8ons
like
emo8on-‐modulated
eye
blink
startle,
emo8onal
arousal
and
pleasure
(Bradley,
et
al.,
1999,
Dichter
et
al.,
2002,
Ruiz-‐Padial
&
Sollers,
2003).
The
iMo8ons
system
iden8fies
several
emo8onal
fingerprints
from
the
characteris8cs
based
on
prior
and
proprietary
knowledge.
Because
blinks
are
also
protec8on
mechanisms
to
keep
the
eyeball
protected
the
iMo8ons
system
compensates
for
blink-‐like
reac8ons
caused
by
the
cleaning/protec8ve
blink
reflex
and
because
the
system
determines
the
emo8onal
reac8on
pre-‐cogni8ve
the

from

can
be
iden8fied
and

WHY
MEASURE
GAZE
BEHAVIOR
“The
Eye
is
the
Mirror
of
the
soul.”
(Proverb)
GAZE
paeerns
are
linked
to
emo8onal
as
well
as
cogni8ve
reac8ons
(Calvo
&
Lang,
2004).
The
iMo8ons
system
iden8fies
several,
pre-‐
aeen8on
and
cogni8ve
characteris8cs
within
the
gaze
paeerns
based
on
prior
and
proprietary
knowledge.
Because
the
gaze
paeerns
aeen8on
wise
are
influenced
by
the
complexity
of
the
objet
(s)
observed,
the
iMo8ons
system
compensates
for
this
effect
when
iden8fying
the
emo8onal
components.
