Hi Peter,

This sounds like a really interesting project. Are you planning to adapt the 
information being displayed on the screen based on the satisfaction of the 
user? I think that could be very risky unless you get a really high reliability 
in your analysis as automatically changing what is displayed can be frustrating 
if you don't want it to change.

I would probably not use pupil size data in this analysis as it depends on so 
many different factors like lighting conditions, the brightness of the stimulus 
and arousal (which in turn can be affected by numerous things). Unless you run 
this system in a very controlled environment I think you would have a really 
hard time getting accurate results.

This also touches on the key problem that you face; you say that you don't want 
to take into account what content is being shown to the user. It will be hard 
to determine the user's state of mind based on the gaze pattern as images in 
different layouts produces gaze patterns that differs a lot from reading 
patterns, even though the images can be just what the user was looking for. 
Reading detection is probably fairly simple but is only useful if all content 
is text based. Will you be able to use information on the navigation structure 
in the algorithm?

Best regards,

Joakim Isaksson
