Description: A modular and extendable approach to extract
        (micro)saccades from gaze samples via an ensemble of methods.
        Although there is an agreement about a general definition of a
        saccade, the more specific details are harder to agree upon.
        Therefore, there are numerous algorithms that extract saccades
        based on various heuristics, which differ in the assumptions
        about velocity, acceleration, etc. The package uses three
        methods (Engbert and Kliegl (2003)
        <doi:10.1016/S0042-6989(03)00084-1>, Otero-Millan et al.
        (2014)<doi:10.1167/14.2.18>, and Nyström and Holmqvist (2010)
        <doi:10.3758/BRM.42.1.188>) to label individual samples and
        then applies a majority vote approach to identify saccades. The
        package includes three methods but can be extended via custom
        functions. It also uses a modular approach to compute velocity
        and acceleration from noisy samples. Finally, you can obtain
        methods votes per gaze sample instead of saccades.
