1. the introduction of eye movement analysis as a new
sensing modality for activity recognition,
2. the development and characterization of new algorithms
for detecting three basic eye movement types
from EOG signals (saccades, fixations, and blinks) and
a method to assess repetitive eye movement patterns,
3. the development and evaluation of 90 features
derived from these eye movement types, and
4. the implementation of a method for continuous EAR
and its evaluation using a multiparticipant EOG data
set involving a study of five real-world office
