Proposal #: 11-26896 PI(s): Hoanca, Bogdan; Mock, Kenrick Institution: University of Alaska at AnchorageTitle: MRI: RUI: Acquisition of Eye Tracking Equipment to Support Research at UAAProject Proposed:This project, acquiring two eye tracking systems, (along with wireless sensors for creating a biometric profile for a computer user), enables new and innovative research directions in user authentication, assistive software for teaching mathematics, context aware document retrieval, and student attentiveness. These new, state-of-the-art eye trackers will replace two lower quality eye trackers, freeing one up for student use. The eye trackers will be located in a controlled-access, public use laboratory available to several researchers at the University of Alaska at Anchorage. The enhanced capabilities of the new eye trackers will permit greater range of motion for more natural user interaction and higher accuracy for better biometrics. Consequently, the work will permit transformational research into more natural and transparent user authentication and computer security based on a comprehensive set of biomarkers, assistive research into mathematical learning techniques for persons with disabilities, enhanced, biomarker-based intelligent search and document categorization through online user profiling, and enhanced assessment of learning efficacy. Aside from brain activity, eye patterns are one of the most direct windows into a person?s understanding and mental activity. Broader Impacts:The broader impacts include the involvement of 4-6 undergraduate students per year in eye tracking research by the co-PIs, with possibly another 4-6 undergraduates per year from other faculty. Four broader impacts are apparent. First, if widely deployed, the proposed authentication scheme has the potential to thwart phishing attacks, and even man in the middle attacks, for e-commerce users. Second, advanced assistive technology for mathematics will allow physically disabled people to perform math manipulations on par with able-bodied people. Third, by tracking what a user actually reads, user profiling will result in better, faster searches for relevant information automatically. Finally, high quality eye tracking should provide the UAA faculty with insight into the direct connections between learning and eye patterns

提案编号：11-26896 PI：Hoanca，Bogdan; Mock，Kenrick机构：阿拉斯加大学安克雷奇分校标题： 核磁共振成像：- 我知道眼动追踪设备的收购，以支持研究在UAA项目建议：这个项目，收购两个眼动追踪系统，（沿着无线传感器，用于创建一个计算机用户的生物特征配置文件），使新的和创新的研究方向，用户身份验证，辅助软件教学数学，上下文感知的文件检索，和学生的注意力。这些新的、最先进的眼动仪将取代两个质量较低的眼动仪，腾出一个供学生使用。眼动追踪器将位于安克雷奇阿拉斯加大学的一个受控访问的公共使用实验室，供几位研究人员使用。新眼动仪的增强功能将允许更大的运动范围，以实现更自然的用户交互和更高的准确性，以实现更好的生物识别。因此，这项工作将允许进行转型研究，以便在一套全面的生物标志物的基础上进行更自然和透明的用户认证和计算机安全，对残疾人数学学习技术进行辅助研究，通过在线用户特征分析加强基于生物标志物的智能搜索和文件分类，并加强对学习效率的评估。除了大脑活动，眼睛的模式是了解一个人最直接的窗口之一。的理解和心理活动。更广泛的影响：更广泛的影响包括每年有4-6名本科生参与co-PI的眼动追踪研究，每年可能还有4-6名来自其他学院的本科生。四个更广泛的影响是显而易见的。首先，如果广泛部署，所提出的身份验证方案有可能阻止网络钓鱼攻击，甚至中间人攻击，电子商务用户。其次，先进的数学辅助技术将使身体残疾的人能够与健全的人一样进行数学操作。第三，通过跟踪用户实际阅读的内容，用户分析将自动更好、更快地搜索相关信息。最后，高质量的眼动追踪应该为UAA教师提供深入了解学习和眼动模式之间的直接联系
