Moscow University Mechanics Bulletin Aims and scope

Abstract

The problem of description and classification of rapid eye movements called saccades is considered. It is well known that the saccades are of various types. A classification of saccades is proposed according to the presence and types of pre-saccadic and post-saccadic movements. An algorithm is developed to determine the parameters that can be used to formally assign the saccade to one of the given types.
