Abstract

Embodiments of the invention provide systems and methods for analyzing eye tracking data. The eye tracking data can represent a number of different scanpaths and can be analyzed, for example, to find patterns or commonality between the scanpaths. According to one embodiment, a method of analyzing eye tracking data can comprise receiving the eye tracking data which can include a plurality of scanpaths, each scanpath representing a sequence of regions of interest on a stimulus image. A dotplot can be generated and can include each of the plurality of scanpaths. One or more patterns within the eye tracking data can be identified based on the dotplot.
