Abstract

A method and system for using eye gaze tracking to extract information in textual form from documents is provided. The method includes: receiving an image that corresponds to a document; receiving, from an eye-tracking sensor configured to detect a sequence of eye-gaze positions on the document as a function of time, a sequence of measurements that correspond to a human reading of the document; determining, based on the received sequence of measurements, a region of the document that is being read by a human; and extracting the textual information that corresponds to the region.
