1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

This paper presents DriVQA, a novel dataset that combines gaze plots and heatmaps with visual question-answering (VQA) data from participants who were presented with driving scenarios. Visual Questioning Answering (VQA) is proposed as a part of the vehicle autonomy trustworthiness and interpretability solution in decision-making by autonomous vehicles. Collected using the Tobii Pro X3-120 eye-tracking device, the DriVQA dataset provides a comprehensive mapping of where participants direct their gaze when presented with images of driving scenes, followed by related questions and answers from every participant. For each scenario, the dataset contains: images of driving situations, associated questions, participant answers, gaze plots, and heatmaps. It is being used to study the subjectivity inherent in VQA. Its detailed gaze-tracking data offers a unique perspective on how individuals perceive and interpret visual scenes, making it an essential resource for training VQA models that rely on human-like attention. The dataset is a valuable tool for investigating human cognition and behaviour in dynamic, real-world scenarios. DriVQA is highly relevant for VQA models, as it allows the systems to learn from human-like attention behaviour when making decisions based on visual input when trained. The dataset has the potential to drive advancements in VQA research and development by improving the safety and intelligence of driving systems through enhanced visual understanding and interaction. DriVQA has significant potential for reuse in various research areas, including the development of advanced VQA models, attention analysis, and human-computer interaction studies. Its comprehensive gaze plots and heatmaps can also be leveraged to improve applications in autonomous driving, driver assistance systems, and cognitive science research, making it a versatile resource for both academic and industrial purposes.
