raw = dataset.datasets[0].raw
print(raw.info)

Filter by subject

dataset = DS003516(cache_dir="./data", subject="01")

Advanced query

dataset = DS003516(
    cache_dir="./data",
    query={"subject": {"$in": ["01", "02"]}},

About This Dataset#

Within this experiment 25 participants performed a two-competing speaker paradigm. Participants were instructed to either attend to the left or right audio book. The paradigm consisted of five 10-minute blocks of audio book presentation. In each 10-minute block the participants own name was presented 10 times, embedded within the to-be-ignored audio book. A 10-minute block could either be presented in the omnidirectional condition (both audio books were presented equally loud) or within the beamforming condition (the to-be-attended audio book was louder than the to-be-ignored audio book). The first 10-minute block was always presented in the omnidirectional condition whereas the conditions were alternated for the later four blocks, with one half of the participants starting with the omnidirectonal condition and the other half starting with the beamforming condition. The article (https://doi.org/10.3389/fnins.2021.643705) contains all methodological details

NEMAR Processing Statistics#

The plots below are generated by NEMAR’s automated EEG pipeline. The histogram shows pipeline success for data cleaning and ICA decomposition, the percentage of data frames and EEG channels retained after artefact removal, line noise per channel (RMS, dB), and the age/gender distribution of participants.

Canonical:

Also importable as: DS003516, Holtze2021.

Modality: eeg. Subjects: 25; recordings: 25; tasks: 1.

Parameters:
  • cache_dir (str | Path) – Directory where data are cached locally.

  • query (dict | None) – Additional MongoDB-style filters to AND with the dataset selection. Must not contain the key dataset.

  • s3_bucket (str | None) – Base S3 bucket used to locate the data.

  • **kwargs (dict) – Additional keyword arguments forwarded to EEGDashDataset.

data_dir#

Local dataset cache directory (cache_dir / dataset_id).

Type:

Path

query#

Merged query with the dataset filter applied.

Type:

dict

records#

Metadata records used to build the dataset, if pre-fetched.

Type:

list[dict] | None

Notes

Each item is a recording; recording-level metadata are available via dataset.description. query supports MongoDB-style filters on fields in ALLOWED_QUERY_FIELDS and is combined with the dataset filter. Dataset-specific caveats are not provided in the summary metadata.

Examples

>>> from eegdash.dataset import DS003516
>>> dataset = DS003516(cache_dir="./data")
>>> recording = dataset[0]
>>> raw = recording.load()
__init__(cache_dir: str, query: dict | None = None, s3_bucket: str | None = None, **kwargs)[source]#
save(path: str, overwrite: bool = False, offset: int = 0)[source]#

Save datasets to files by creating one subdirectory for each dataset:

path/
    0/
        0-raw.fif | 0-epo.fif
        description.json
        raw_preproc_kwargs.json (if raws were preprocessed)
        window_kwargs.json (if this is a windowed dataset)
        window_preproc_kwargs.json  (if windows were preprocessed)
        target_name.json (if target_name is not None and dataset is raw)
    1/
        1-raw.fif | 1-epo.fif
        description.json
        raw_preproc_kwargs.json (if raws were preprocessed)
        window_kwargs.json (if this is a windowed dataset)
        window_preproc_kwargs.json  (if windows were preprocessed)
        target_name.json (if target_name is not None and dataset is raw)
Parameters:
  • path (str) –

    Directory in which subdirectories are created to store

    -raw.fif | -epo.fif and .json files to.

  • overwrite (bool) – Whether to delete old subdirectories that will be saved to in this call.

  • offset (int) – If provided, the integer is added to the id of the dataset in the concat. This is useful in the setting of very large datasets, where one dataset has to be processed and saved at a time to account for its original position.
