Abstract(in English) This paper presents a video cut editing rule based on participants' gaze for accurately and clearly conveying the conversation in multiparty situations such as meetings to viewers watching afterwards. We propose a new video cut editing rule; the rule uses majority decision with regard to participants' gaze direction. We confirm the relations between participants' gaze behavior in 3-person to 5-person multiparty conversation and who is talking to whom and hearers' response to speakers, which are extremely crucial pieces of information that allow viewers to understand the conversation. We then present experiments that compare the proposed method to conventional visual representations such as multiple view shots and camera selection based on utterance. We conclude that the proposed method can more successfully convey who is talking to whom and hearers' response to speakers.
