LEXIC: Lightweight On-Device Decoding of Reading Comprehension from Eye Movements

תקציר מקורי באנגליתarXiv:2607.08152v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Predicting comprehension from eye movements could support adaptive reading interfaces. We present LEXIC, a compact recurrent model that predicts response correctness from fixation sequences, word frequency, and character length. It has 41.6K parameters and requires no language-model inference. Mean area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUROC) reaches 0.529 for Unseen Text and 0.554 for Unseen Reader on OneStop. Matched comparisons with AhnCNN show gains from both encoder redesign and lexical augmentation in these settings. Separate training and evaluation on SB-SAT also yield higher mean AUROC than AhnCNN. LEXIC occupies only 166 KB of model weights and requires 1.4 ms per trial on a single CPU core, supporting lightweig
