Article in Scientific Reports: Mind Wandering
Do you enjoy touristic audio guides? You don’t? One reason could be that classic audio guides do not adapt to your cognitive state in real time.
In our most recent article in Scientific Reports, we investigate the detection of mind wandering from eye movements for combined audio-visual stimuli, such as touristic audio guides. We trained and validated classifiers which are able to successfully detect mind wandering in a 1-s time window. Future audio guides could use our results for providing more intelligent assistance.

We wish you a fully focused (= non-mind wandering) reading experience!
