personalities.the eyes, they say, are the windows to the soul. and if that is true, computers and robots powered by sophisticated(復(fù)雜的) artificial intelligence algorithms(演算法) may soon have the ability to peer_into your soul. that is the result of a new study on the connection between eye movements and personality, conducted by neuroscience researchers based at the university of south australia and published in the scientific journal frontiers in neuroscience.“eye movements during an everyday task predict aspects of our personality,” wrote the researchers, led by university of south australia neuroscientist tobias loetscher, whose team followed 42 study subjects around the university campus recording their eye movements, then determined their personality traits with “wellestablished questionnaires” for determining the personality type, according to a summary of the study published by the site science daily.the researchers fed the data into their ai algorithms and found that computers running the algorithms were able to record human eye movements and immediately determine a persons major personality traits, such as “neuroticism, extraversion(外向), agreeableness, conscientiousness, as well as curiosity”, the scientists wrote.“the new findings could improve the way human beings interact with their computers and other hightech devices, even robots, allowing for more natural and realistic social interactions with machines,” loetscher said.“people are always looking for improved, personalized services. todays robots and computers are not socially aware so they cannot adapt to nonverbal information,” loetscher said in a statement quoted by the indian express. this research provides opportunities to develop robots and computers so that they can become more natural, and better at interpreting human social signals.the study revealed previously undiscovered relations between specific personality characteristics and specific eye movement tendencies, according to a summary in britains daily mail newspaper.【解題導(dǎo)語(yǔ)】本文主要介紹了一項(xiàng)人工智能計(jì)算機(jī)和機(jī)器人通過(guò)讀人眼球的運(yùn)動(dòng)從而一窺人的個(gè)性的研究。4what do the underlined words “peer into” in
