Multipulse controller signals

Abstract

We compare model trajectories driven by different orders of controller signals to statistics on shapes of human saccadic eye movements. The commonly recorded dynamic overshoot must be driven by a multipulse controller signal, but multipulse controller signals need not always produce observable dynamic overshoots. Thus it is possible that a single strategy — multipulse control — produces all saccades, but that the strategy is not always apparent in the recorded movements.
