Abstract(in English) Since the code reading ability may reflect the characteristics of the eye response, the analysis of the eye information has been considered as a new evaluation index. However, the detailed relationship between the factors has not been clarified, and the analysis is only qualitative. The purpose of this study is to clarify the relationship between code reading ability and eye information in the reading process. In this study, we analyzed a data set of eye measurements during code reading. The use of gaze-area blocks for each function of the code and the temporal variation of eye movements and pupil fluctuations enabled detailed feature detection, which has not been investigated in previous studies. The results suggest that the estimation using eye information is feasible.
