Quickstart#

Install

pip install eegdash

Access the data

from eegdash.dataset import DS005296

About This Dataset#

Data collection took place at the NeuroCognition Laboratory (NCL) in San Diego, California under the supervision of Dr. Phillip Holcomb. This project followed the San Diego State University’s IRB guidelines.

Participants sat in a comfortable chair in a darkened sound attenuated room throughout the experiment. They were given a keyboard for button pressing and wore a lightweight headset to record their verbal responses. They were instructed to watch the LCD video monitor that was at a viewing distance of 60in.

Participants were presented with 180 sentences in white font on a black background. Conditions consisted of 30 subject-verb agreement violations, 30 semantic violations, 30 double (subject-verb agreement + semantic) violations, 30 word-order violations, and 60 control (correct) sentences. Sentences were presented in an RSVP design, one word at a time, in the middle of the screen for a duration of 600ms with an ISI of 200ms.

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.

Assessing sensitivity to semantic and syntactic information in deaf readers: An ERP study

Study:

ds005296 (OpenNeuro)

Author (year):

Emmorey2024

Canonical:

Also importable as: DS005296, Emmorey2024.

Modality: eeg. Subjects: 62; recordings: 62; 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 DS005296
>>> dataset = DS005296(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.
