Introduction to the Special Issue on New Directions in Eye Gaze for Interactive Intelligent Systems

Eye gaze has been used broadly in interactive intelligent systems. The research area has grown in recent years to cover emerging topics that go beyond the traditional focus on interaction between a single user and an interactive system. This special issue presents five articles that explore new directions of gaze-based interactive intelligent systems, ranging from communication robots in dyadic and multiparty conversations to a driving simulator that uses eye gaze evidence to critique learners’ behavior.
