GazeBehavior Annotation Toolkit (GBAT): AI-powered toolkit for automatic annotation of egocentric eye-tracking and video data of child-caregiver interaction

Researchers have developed the GazeBehavior Annotation Toolkit (GBAT), a deep-learning-based system that automates the synchronization and annotation of egocentric eye-tracking and video data from child-caregiver interactions. The toolkit performs post-hoc video synchronization, semi-automatic gaze target annotation, and categorization of poses and hand actions, replacing time-consuming manual processes. This advancement enables large-scale, longitudinal studies of attentional dynamics and naturalistic behavior in early human development.

arXiv:2605.22962v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Video recordings of child-caregiver interactions enable investigation of attentional dynamics during naturalistic behavior. Such multimodal recording also allows researchers to examine how attention interacts with action and language use in real time. However, manual annotation of such data is time-consuming. Here, we introduce GazeBehavior Annotation Toolkit, a deep-learning-based toolkit designed to facilitate three key processes in data preprocessing and feature extraction: post-hoc synchronization across multiple videos, semi-automatic annotation of gaze target categories, and categorization of participants' poses and hand actions. This toolkit improves the efficiency and scalability of feature extraction from human egocentric eye-tracking and video data. Such improvement is critical in supporting large-scale and longitudinal investigations of attentional dynamics and naturalistic behavior in human early development.
