Abstract

Learning a foreign language such as English is an importan task for many people. The process of learning take time and it is important to have a simple way to evaluate th progress of the skill. We propose a method to evaluate th reader's English skill based on a mobile eye tracking system The eye tracker captures the reader's behavior whil reading a document. The front camera of the eye tracke records the scene image that contains the read document By using a retrieval algorithm we can recognize the rea document and project the eye gaze data from the scene imag to the document space. Then, some features related t the reading and solving behavior on several documents ar computed. As a first result, we show that the TOEIC scor can be estimated with an error of 36.3 points.
