Effects of Interior Bezels of Tiled Large High-Resolution Displays on Saliency Prediction and Human Eye Movement Behavior

Abstract

We present the results of two studies to quantify the effects of bezels LHRDs on human eye movements and on saliency algorithm predictions. Subjects observe natural images on two different display systems, with and without interior bezels. Our results indicate that: (i) the effect of interior bezels on the subjects' gaze decreases after a short period of time. While eye movement patterns of images presented on LHRDs vary, eye movement patterns of images presented on a single-screen display without interior bezels focus on the most salient locations in the images. (ii) The interior bezels of tiled displays affect the results of saliency prediction algorithms.
