In recent years, several authors have reported that spectral saliency detection methods provide state-of-the-art performance in predicting human gaze in images (see, e.g., [1–3]). We systematically integrate and evaluate quaternion DCT- and FFT-based spectral saliency detection [3,4], weighted quaternion color space components [5], and the use of multiple resolutions [1]. Furthermore, we propose the use of the eigenaxes and eigenangles for spectral saliency models that are based on the quaternion Fourier transform. We demonstrate the outstanding performance on the Bruce-Tsotsos (Toronto), Judd (MIT), and Kootstra- Schomacker eye-tracking data sets.
