Abstract(in English) This paper proposes a method to detect unknown words during natural reading by using eye-tracking technique. A previous approach utilizes fixation and word rarity features to detect unknown words in foreign language. However, the performance of conventional approach is not sufficient during natural reading. To improve detection performance, we try to 1) apply support vector machine (SVM), and 2) use new eye movement features that were not considered in the previous work. The experimental results demonstrate that SVM and proposed eye movement features are capable of improving detection performance as measured by F-measure.
