Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this research, we aim to evaluate the readability of a document on the basis of eye movements. Since it is not realistic to ask participants to read documents with eye tracking devices every time, we develop a system that synthesizes artificial eye movements on the document and utilizes them for the readability measurement. In the first year, as basic research for the readability measurement, we investigated the relationship between cognitive load while reading and sensor signals including eye movements and electrodermal activities. In the next year, We proposed a method to estimate fixation durations of each word of a document without asking people to read the document with an eye tracker. In the final year, we improved the performance of gaze synthesis by conducting a well-controlled experiment and applied it to the readability measurement.
