This talk takes that idea and\, in the name o f science\, sucks a little bit of the mystery out of it: we present a stat istical model that predicts your eye movements as you look at a painting f or the first time.\n\nWe trained and tested this model on real eye-trackin g data: twenty people looking at six very different paintings. The result is a model that can reasonably imitate how a person's gaze wanders across a piece of art in the first crucial 30 seconds\, which is either a neat co ntribution to the science of visual attention\, or a way to slightly ruin art forever by reducing it to a stochastic process and making you uncomfor tably conscious of how you eyes move. You be the judge.\n LOCATION:https://researchseminars.org/talk/gbgphd/65/ END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
