Getting Started with eyeprocess

The hardware and bandwidth for this mirror is donated by METANET, the Webhosting and Full Service-Cloud Provider.
If you wish to report a bug, or if you are interested in having us mirror your free-software or open-source project, please feel free to contact us at mirror[@]metanet.ch.

eyeprocess harmonizes heterogeneous eye-tracking, pupil, event, response, and biometric streams without erasing their source semantics. The core object is a relational eye_dataset, not a single wide data frame.

Installation

For the CRAN release (0.11.1, published 28 September 2026):

install.packages("eyeprocess")

The canonical CRAN record is https://CRAN.R-project.org/package=eyeprocess and the package DOI is https://doi.org/10.32614/CRAN.package.eyeprocess.

The GitHub stable release is currently newer than CRAN. Install v0.12.0 explicitly when that release line is required:

install.packages("remotes")
remotes::install_github("stefanosbalaskas/eyeprocess", ref = "v0.12.0")

For the current 0.12.0.9000 development branch:

remotes::install_github("stefanosbalaskas/eyeprocess")

Always record the installed package version in reproducible reports with packageVersion("eyeprocess").

Simulate a complete project

library(eyeprocess)

x <- simulate_eye_dataset(n_person = 20, n_item = 8, seed = 42)
x
summary(x)
validate_eye_dataset(x)
provenance_manifest(x)

Standard workflow

spec <- preprocess_spec(
  gaze_filter = "median",
  pupil_interpolation = "linear",
  pupil_filter = "median",
  fixation_algorithm = "ivt"
)

x <- preprocess_eye(x, spec)
x <- build_aoi_visits(x)
x <- derive_all_features(x)

analysis_readiness(x)
feature_dictionary(x)

Inspect and visualize

trial <- x$intervals$trial_id[1]
plot_eye_overview(x)
plot_scanpath(x, trial_id = trial)
plot_pupil_timeseries(x, trial_id = trial)
plot_transition_matrix(x)

Persist the canonical representation

write_eye_dataset(x, "analysis/eye-dataset.rds")
export_canonical(x, "analysis/canonical-folder")
report_eye_dataset(x, "analysis/eyeprocess-report.md", include_plots = TRUE)

These binaries (installable software) and packages are in development.
They may not be fully stable and should be used with caution. We make no claims about them.
