ETRA Best Short Paper Honorable Mention

At this year's ACM Symposium on Eye Tracking Research & Applications (ETRA), the paper “How Deep Is Your Gaze? Leveraging Distance in Image-Based Gaze Analysis” received a Best Short Paper Honorable Mention Award. In their paper, Maurice Koch, Nelusa Pathmanathan, Daniel Weiskopf, and Kuno Kurzhals propose depth-adaptive thumbnails as an alternative to thumbnails with a constant size for the analysis and visualization of eye-tracking data.

ETRA is a biennial symposium that addresses all aspects of eye movement research across a broad spectrum of disciplines. The aim of ETRA is to bring together computer scientists, engineers and behavioral scientists to support a shared vision for improving eye movement research and applications. This year the symposium took place from June 4-7 in Glasgow, Scotland.
