Stationarity of a User’s Pupil Size Signal as a Precondition of Pupillary-Based Mental Workload Evaluation

We discuss the concept of stationarity as a precondition of pupillary-based assessments of a user’s mental workload and report results from an experiment differentiating stationarity and non-stationarity pupillary size signals.
