Abstract

Influence of two filtering modes were researched with electro-oculographically recorded impulse-like eye movements. Linear finite impulse response (FIR) and nonlinear hybrid median filters were explored by considering gain and latency parameters that yield the most important information in the case of these eye movements. It is stated that carefully selected low pass filtering can securely be run without considerable change sin parameter values in order to discard noise stemming from physiological or other reasons.
