Your Eyes Tell - Leveraging Smooth Pursuit for Assessing Cognitive Workload

Explore a groundbreaking conference talk that delves into leveraging smooth pursuit eye movements for assessing cognitive workload. Discover how researchers compared three trajectories and two speeds under varying levels of cognitive workload in a user study. Learn about the findings that reveal higher deviations of gaze points during smooth pursuit eye movements for specific trajectory types at increased cognitive workload levels. Understand the development of an SVM classifier that predicts cognitive workload through smooth pursuit with remarkable accuracy. Gain insights into the implications and potential applications of this research for creating cognition-aware systems that can infer cognitive workload in real-time. Recorded at the ACM CHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems in Montréal, Canada, this 24-minute presentation offers valuable knowledge for researchers and practitioners in the field of human-computer interaction and cognitive computing.
