This\nwork drastically reduces the human effort required to apply saliency algorithms\nto new tasks and datasets, while also ensuring consistency and procedural\ncorrectness for results and conclusions produced by different parties. At its\nlaunch SMILER already includes twenty three saliency models (fourteen models\nbased in MATLAB and nine supported through containerization), and the open\ndesign of SMILER encourages this number to grow with future contributions from\nthe community.
