It's been good... The MIT Saliency Benchmark (EST. 2012) has transitioned hands.
The new benchmark can be found at https://saliency.tuebingen.ai.

MIT Saliency Benchmark Results: MIT300

The following are results of models evaluated on their ability to predict ground truth human fixations on our benchmark data set containing 300 natural images with eye tracking data from 39 observers. We post the results here and provide a way for people to submit new models for evaluation.

citations

If you use any of the results or data on this page, please cite the following:

These evaluations are released in conjuction with the following papers:

Images

300 benchmark images (the fixations from 39 viewers per image are not public such that no model can be trained using this data set).

Model Performances

Model Visualizations

93 models, 5 baselines, 8 metrics, and counting...
