The paper constructed a depression classification model based on emotionally related eye-movement data and kernel extreme learn machine (ELM). In order to improve the classification ability of the model, we use particle swarm optimization (PSO) to optimize the model parameters (regularization coefficient C and the parameter σ in the kernel function). At the same time, in order to avoid to be caught in the local optimum and improve PSO's searching ability, we use improved chaotic PSO optimization algorithm and Gauss mutation strategy to increase PSO's particle diversity. The classification results show that the accuracy, sensitivity and specificity of classification models without parameter optimization and Gauss mutation strategy are 80.23%, 80.31% and 79.43%, respectively, while those results of classification model using improved chaotic projection model and Gauss mutation strategy are improved to 88.55%, 87.71% and 89.42%, respectively. Compared with other classification methods of depression, the proposed classification method has better performance on depression recognition.

Because it is difficulty to classify level of fabric wrinkle, this paper proposes a fabric winkle level classification model via online sequential extreme learning machine based on improved sine cosine algorithm (SCA). The SCA has excellent global optimization ability, can explore different search spaces, and effectively avoid falling into local optimum. Because the initial population of SCA will have an impact on its optimization speed and quality, the SCA is initialized by differential evolution (DE) to avoid local optimization, and then the output weight and hidden layer bias are optimized; that is, the improved SCA is used to select the optimal parameters of the online sequential extreme learning machine (OSELM) to improve the generalization performance of the algorithm. To verify the performance of the proposed model DE-SCA-OSELM, it will be compared with other algorithms using a fabric wrinkles dataset collected under standard conditions. The experimental results indicate that the proposed model can effectively find the optimal parameter value of OSELM. The average classification accuracy increased by 6.95%, 3.62%, 6.67%, and 3.34%, respectively, compared with the partial algorithms OSELM, SCAELM, RVFL and PSOSVM, which meets expectations.

Abstract. We report the results of a meta-analysis of 22 experiments comparing the eye movement data obtained from young ( Mage = 21 years) and old ( Mage = 73 years) readers. The data included six eye movement measures (mean gaze duration, mean fixation duration, total sentence reading time, mean number of fixations, mean number of regressions, and mean length of progressive saccade eye movements). Estimates were obtained of the typified mean difference, d, between the age groups in all six measures. The results showed positive combined effect size estimates in favor of the young adult group (between 0.54 and 3.66 in all measures), although the difference for the mean number of fixations was not significant. Young adults make in a systematic way, shorter gazes, fewer regressions, and shorter saccadic movements during reading than older adults, and they also read faster. The meta-analysis results confirm statistically the most common patterns observed in previous research; therefore, eye movements seem to be a useful tool to measure behavioral changes due to the aging process. Moreover, these results do not allow us to discard either of the two main hypotheses assessed for explaining the observed aging effects, namely neural degenerative problems and the adoption of compensatory strategies.

Land use changes influence the water balance and often increase surface runoff. The resulting impacts on river flow, water level, and flood should be identified beforehand in the phase of spatial planning. In two consecutive papers, we develop a model-based decision support system for quantifying the hydrological and stream hydraulic impacts of land use changes. Part 1 presents the semi-automatic set-up of physically based hydrological and hydraulic models on the basis of geodata analysis for the current state. Appropriate hydrological model parameters for ungauged catchments are derived by a transfer from a calibrated model. In the regarded lowland river basins, parameters of surface and groundwater inflow turned out to be particularly important. While the calibration delivers very good to good model results for flow (Evol =2.4%, R = 0.84, NSE = 0.84), the model performance is good to satisfactory (Evol = −9.6%, R = 0.88, NSE = 0.59) in a different river system parametrized with the transfer procedure. After transferring the concept to a larger area with various small rivers, the current state is analyzed by running simulations based on statistical rainfall scenarios. Results include watercourse section-specific capacities and excess volumes in case of flooding. The developed approach can relatively quickly generate physically reliable and spatially high-resolution results. Part 2 builds on the data generated in part 1 and presents the subsequent approach to assess hydrologic/hydrodynamic impacts of potential land use changes.

Gaze movement and visual stimuli have been utilized to analyze human visual attention intuitively. Gaze behavior studies mainly show statistical analyses of eye movements and human visual attention. During these analyses, eye movement data and the saliency map are presented to the analysts as separate views or merged views. However, the analysts become frustrated when they need to memorize all of the separate views or when the eye movements obscure the saliency map in the merged views. Therefore, it is not easy to analyze how visual stimuli affect gaze movements since existing techniques focus excessively on the eye movement data. In this paper, we propose a novel visualization technique for analyzing gaze behavior using saliency features as visual clues to express the visual attention of an observer. The visual clues that represent visual attention are analyzed to reveal which saliency features are prominent for the visual stimulus analysis. We visualize the gaze data with the saliency features to interpret the visual attention. We analyze the gaze behavior with the proposed visualization to evaluate that our approach to embedding saliency features within the visualization supports us to understand the visual attention of an observer.
