ELAN Analysis Companion (EAC) : A Software Tool for Time-course Analysis of ELAN-annotated Data

Andersson, Richard LU and Sandgren, Olof LU orcid (2016) In Journal of Eye Movement Research 9(3). p.1-8
Abstract
ELAN is a widely used and free (in both senses) annotation software for behavioral or other events that unfold over time. We report on and release a stand-alone program that expands on ELAN's capabilities in two ways: 1) it allows the researcher to plot and export time-course analysis data directly from ELAN's native annotation files, allowing for hassle-free analysis in the time domain; and 2) it allows the researcher to weight ELAN's built-in annotator reliability rating based on the duration of the coded events. This software is released under an open license.
