MultiplEYE Final Conference – Advancing Multilingual
Eye-tracking-while-reading Research
Short Title: MultiplEYE
Theme: Advancing multilingual eye-tracking-while-reading research

Date: 20-Aug-2026 - 21-Aug-2026
Location: Skopje, North Macedonia
Meeting URL: https://multipleyefc.github.io/2026/

Linguistic Field(s): Computational Linguistics; Psycholinguistics

Submission Deadline: 13-Apr-2026

The MultiplEYE COST Action invites the research community to submit
abstracts to its final international conference on
eye-tracking-while-reading, bringing together work from
psycholinguistics, computational linguistics, NLP, and eye-tracking
methodology.
Date and Venue:
The conference will take place on 20-21 August 2026, in Skopje,
Republic of North Macedonia, at the Faculty of Computer Science and
Engineering, “Ss. Cyril and Methodius” University – Skopje.
Purpose and scope of the conference:
The conference will present the main outcomes of a large-scale
international collaboration involving more than 350 researchers, and
will serve as an open forum for the wider eye-tracking-while-reading
community. We warmly welcome contributions from researchers beyond the
MultiplEYE network.
At the conference, we will introduce a new multilingual, parallel
eye-tracking-while-reading corpus, developed through a coordinated
multi-lab effort. Alongside the data resource, we will present a fully
open, FAIR-compliant pipeline covering experimental presentation,
preprocessing, metadata standards, and documentation. This
infrastructure is designed to promote transparency, interoperability,
and reproducibility, and to support future reuse and extension by the
broader eye-tracking research communities.
Beyond the core data resource, the conference will disseminate key
results from the MultiplEYE working groups on
eye-tracking-while-reading methodology in general, psycholinguistic
research using eye-tracking, and leveraging eye-tracking data for NLP.
These contributions aim to stimulate discussion and collaboration
across disciplines and research traditions, and we therefore invite
submissions on all aspects of eye-tracking-while-reading from
researchers within and beyond the MultiplEYE network, including:
- empirical studies
- computational approaches
- methodological contributions
- open science perspectives.
The conference aims to foster cross-disciplinary exchange and to shape
future directions in reading research and eye-tracking methodology.
Join us to engage with a diverse international community, discover new
resources and methods, and contribute to the next generation of
eye-tracking research!
