Potsdam, Germany
February 17-20, 2026
We are delighted to invite you to join our next in-person preprocessing meeting! The meeting will take place on February 17-20, 2026, in Potsdam, Germany at the Department of Linguistics, University of Potsdam.
In this meeting we will discuss and test the MultiplEYE preprocessing pipeline which we have been developing over the course of the last few months. We are therefore asking representatives of the MultiplEYE languages to join us in this meeting to test and improve the pipeline. The pipeline is supposed to be applied to all MultiplEYE datasets and beyond. Our focus lies therefore on the usability of the pipeline in general, as well as extending it to other datasets.
Ideally, participants have already applied simple preprocessing pipelines to eye-tracking data or have used pymovements, and are familiar with the different stages of preprocessing. Basic Python knowledge is required.
An agenda for the meeting and details about the venue will be sent out before the meeting.
Please note that all members of MultiplEYE are eligible to apply for attendance and will be reimbursed upon the completion of the event if they are selected by the organizing team.
