Required Skills:
Research Scientist, Machine Learning and Eye Tracking Responsibilities:
Research and develop novel machine learning and computer vision based methods for eye tracking in AR/VR form factors.
Work with large-scale eye tracking data sets to build models that work across the diversity of the entire human population.
Combine data driven and 3D model based methods to deliver robust performance independent of device fit.
Incorporate data from multiple sensor modalities to build robust, efficient models.
Quantify the robustness and accuracy of these models using statistical analysis of the data.
Optimize models to deliver robust, always-on eye tracking in power-constrained platforms.
Categorize failures and mine the data for difficult edge cases, and use this to improve the worst-case performance of eye tracking algorithms.
Help to develop simulation and ground truth data collection tools that reduce the amount of data needed to deliver robust models.
Collaborate with other research scientists, hardware and software engineers to develop innovative machine learning techniques for eye tracking use-cases.
