Abstract

The oculomotor performance can be an indicator of early neurodegeneration. Persons with Alzheimer's disease have shown different eye movement patterns than healthy persons in visual exploration through different experiments. We present a non-obtrusive approach for the assessment of oculomotor performance that can be useful to detect early stages of dementia. Our proposal uses a non-intrusive method to analyze how people explore leisure web content. In this paper, we discuss literature, our initial design, and the future directions of the project.
