Abstract: During eye tracking studies, vast amounts of spatio-temporal data in the form of eye gaze trajectories are recorded. Finding insights into these time-varying data sets is a challenging task. Visualization techniques such as heat maps or gaze plots help find patterns in the data but highly aggregate the data (heat maps) or are difficult to read due to overplotting (gaze plots). In this paper, we propose transforming eye movement data into a dynamic graph data structure to explore the visualization problem from a new perspective. By aggregating gaze trajectories of participants over time periods or Areas of Interest (AOIs), a fair trade-off between aggregation and details is achieved. We show that existing dynamic graph visualizations can be used to display the transformed data and illustrate the approach by applying it to eye tracking data recorded for investigating the readability of tree diagrams.
