Eye-tracking and Natural Language Processing
ETNLP - Eye-tracking and Natural Language Processing
A 1/2 day workshop organized in the context of:
Coling 2012
24th International Conference on Computational Linguistics
15 December, 2012 Mumbai, India
http://www.coling2012-iitb.org/
New paper submission deadline: 14th October 2012
Eye-tracking devices are increasingly used in natural language applications, for hypothesis testing, user modelling and usability studies, system evaluation and feature extraction, as well as for on-line applications such as real-time human-machine interaction, intelligent user adaptation and gaze-based control. The planned workshop aims at bringing together interested parties in using eye-tracking devices in NLP-related research, including representation, implementation and algorithms for gaze detection as well as assessment and evaluation of possibilities and quality of gaze data in natural language applications. The workshop solicits papers on all aspects which relate eye tracking and natural languages, such as:
Gaze-based Language and/or Reading Research
Gaze-based Computational Psycholinguistics
Eye Movements and Attention in Natural Language Understanding
Gaze Interaction and Gaze-based Control in Text Processing
Measuring Cognitive Complexity of human NLP tasks
Algorithms for Gaze Data Filtering and Gaze-to-symbol Mapping
Synchronization of Gaze Data with other Input Devices
Corpora of Gaze Data in Language Processing
Invited Talk by Matthew Crocker, Saarland University: Grounding spoken interaction with real-time gaze in dynamic virtual environments.
Organizers: Michael Carl (Copenhagen Business School, Denmark); Pushpak Bhattacharya (IIT Mumbai, India); Kamal Kumar Choudhary (IIT Ropar, India)
