Abstract:

Graphical statistics plays a very important job in research and industry. As a statistician, it is very useful that if one can see how people make their decision based on the plots, so that plots can be improved for better performance. With the help of eye-tracking equipment, we show people plots along with some questions. We track the person's eyes to see how exactly people going through the plots to come to their answer. In this paper, the process and results of these experiments will be discussed.
