| Abstract | Animations of American Sign Language (ASL) have accessibility benefits for signers with lower written-language literacy. Our lab has conducted prior evaluations of synthesized ASL animations: asking native signers to watch different versions of animations and answer comprehension and subjective questions about them. Seeking an alternative method of measuring users' reactions to animations, we are now investigating the use of eye tracking to understand how users perceive our stimuli. This study quantifies how the eye gaze of native signers varies when they view: videos of a human ASL signer or synthesized animations of ASL (of different levels of quality). We found that, when viewing videos, signers spend more time looking at the face and less frequently move their gaze between the face and body of the signer. We also found correlations between these two eye-tracking metrics and participants' responses to subjective evaluations of animation-quality. This paper provides methodological guidance for how to design user studies evaluating sign language animations that include eye tracking, and it suggests how certain eye-tracking metrics could be used as an alternative or complimentary form of measurement in evaluation studies of sign language animation. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
