System And Method For Quantifying And Mapping Visual Salience
First Claim
1. A method for displaying a plurality of individuals'"'"' ocular responses to a dynamic visual stimulus that changes over time, comprising the steps of:
- receiving data indicative of each of the plurality of individuals'"'"' ocular responses to the dynamic visual stimulus;
generating a three-dimensional scanpath based on the data for each of the plurality of individuals, wherein two of the dimensions correspond to a position of a point of regard for each individual and one of the dimensions corresponds to time;
displaying the scanpaths in a three-dimensional grid comprising two positional axes and one time axis.

Abstract
A system for quantifying and mapping visual salience to a visual stimulus, including a processor, software for receiving data indicative of a group of individual'"'"'s ocular responses to a visual stimulus, software for determining a distribution of visual resources at each of at least two times for each of at least a portion of the individuals. The system further including software for determining and quantifying a group distribution of visual resources at each of the at least two times and software for generating a display of the group'"'"'s distribution of visual resources to the visual stimulus.

7. A method for measuring the distribution of visual resources of an individual in response to a dynamic visual stimulus that changes over time, comprising the steps of:
-
receiving data indicative of the individual'"'"'s ocular responses to the dynamic visual stimulus; calculating an effective distribution of retinal cells for the individual; measuring points of regard of the dynamic visual stimulus over time for the individual; and mapping the effective distribution of retinal cells onto the points of regard for the individual. - View Dependent Claims (8, 9, 10, 11)

12. A method for quantifying and mapping visual salience to a dynamic visual stimulus that changes over time, comprising the steps of:
-
receiving data indicative of each of a plurality of individual'"'"'s ocular responses to the dynamic visual stimulus; determining, based on said data, a distribution of visual resources of the plurality of individuals with respect to at least a portion of the dynamic visual stimulus; and generating a display of the distribution of visual resources in a three-dimensional grid comprising two positional axes and one of a time axis or a salience axis. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19)
