Computational models of eye movements and their application to schizophrenia

Abstract

Patients with neuropsychiatric disorders, in particular schizophrenia, show a variety of eye movement abnormalities that putatively reflect alterations of perceptual inference, learning and cognitive control. While these abnormalities are consistently found at the group level, a particularly difficult and important challenge is to translate these findings into clinically useful tests for single patients. In this paper, we argue that generative models of eye movement data, which allow for inferring individual computational and physiolo Show more
