Processes a single Duration or a List of Durations, returning a single or list of unitSpecs.
The figure shows frequency distributions of fixation durations returned for 3 sample participants.
Using the same sample, we then evaluated whether relationships could be identified between data quality and the fixation durations returned by standard dispersal-based algorithms.
Also notable from comparing Figs. 3 and 9 is that the range of mean fixation durations returned by our algorithms (360 710 ms) is much lower than that returned by the standard dispersal algorithms (160 770 ms).
There are substantial differences in the mean (400 vs. 545 ms), mode (100 vs. 380 ms), and median (339 vs. 460 ms) fixation durations returned by the two algorithms.
Flickery contact appears to influence fixation durations returned by standard dispersal algorithms because almost all fixation detection algorithms are set up to treat an instance in which contact is lost during a fixation as signaling the end of that fixation.
Scale invariance theory is employed for obtaining short duration return levels from daily data.
If t is less than the simulation duration, return to step 2. The source code of this algorithm is included in Text S1.
Mean fixation duration returned by our algorithms is 506 ms for the clean data, 480 ms for the flicker simulation, and 424 ms for the low-precision simulation (in contrast to 472 ms/240 ms/367 ms for the standard dispersal algorithms shown in Fig. 5).
Moreover, the analysis showed that the rainfall of various durations and return periods represents a certain percentage of the mean annual precipitation for hydrologicaly homogeneous areas of Greece.
