Abstract

In this paper, we describe the design of an interactive visualization tool for the comparison of eye movement data with a special focus on the outliers. In order to make the tool usable and accessible to anyone with a data science background, we provide a web-based solution by using the Dash library based on the Python programming language and the Python library Plotly. Interactive visualization is very well supported by Dash, which makes the visualization tool easy to use. We support multiple ways of comparing user scanpaths like bounding boxes and Jaccard indices to identify similarities. Moreover, we support matrix reordering to clearly separate the outliers in the scanpaths. We further support the data analyst by complementary views such as gaze plots and visual attention maps.
