Quickstart#

Get Started

Install

pip install eegdash

Access the data

from eegdash.dataset import DS006222

dataset = DS006222(cache_dir="./data")
# Get the raw object of the first recording
raw = dataset.datasets[0].raw
print(raw.info)

Query & Filter

Filter by subject

dataset = DS006222(cache_dir="./data", subject="01")

Advanced query

dataset = DS006222(
    cache_dir="./data",
    query={"subject": {"$in": ["01", "02"]}},
)

Iterate recordings

for rec in dataset:
    print(rec.subject, rec.raw.info['sfreq'])

About This Dataset#

We recorded scalp EEG activity of healthy adults during one hour of either 40 Hz audiovisual flicker, no flicker as control, or randomized flicker as sham stimulation, while subjects performed a psychomotor vigilance task.

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.

class eegdash.dataset.DS006222(cache_dir: str, query: dict | None = None, s3_bucket: str | None = None, **kwargs)[source]#

Bases: EEGDashDataset

MultisensoryFlickerHealthyYoungAdults_AllSubjectsRawData

Study:: ds006222 (OpenNeuro)
Author (year):: Attokaren2025
Canonical:: —

Also importable as: DS006222, Attokaren2025.

Modality: eeg; Experiment type: Attention; Subject type: Healthy. Subjects: 69; recordings: 70; 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.
