Abstract

The embodiments of the present disclosure disclose a method for determining the direction of gaze. A specific implementation of the method includes: obtaining a face or eye image of a target subject, and establishing a feature extraction network; using an adversarial training method to optimize the feature extraction network, and implicitly removing the gaze-irrelevant features extracted by the feature extraction network, so that the feature extraction network extracts gaze-related features from the face or eye image to obtain the gaze-related features; determining the target gaze direction based on the gaze-related features. This implementation can separate the gaze-irrelevant features contained in the image features from the gaze-related features, so that the image features contain the gaze-related features, and that the accuracy and stability of the determined direction of gaze are further improved.
