Abstract

In communication, it is very important for a speaker to understand the comprehension state of the speaking partner. In this study, the “comprehension state” is defined as whether or not the speaker’s message is clearly understood, which is difficult to accurately evaluate. This study aims to evaluate the comprehension state from the pupil size using machine learning. We conduct a word association task using elements that are similar to those used in conversations and measure the pupil size; this pupil size data is used as input data for machine learning. The results show that high accuracy is achieved by learning the low frequency components of the pupil size.
