Quickstart#

Get Started

Install

pip install eegdash

Access the data

from eegdash.dataset import NM000103

dataset = NM000103(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 = NM000103(cache_dir="./data", subject="01")

Advanced query

dataset = NM000103(
    cache_dir="./data",
    query={"subject": {"$in": ["01", "02"]}},
)

Iterate recordings

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

About This Dataset#

Overview

This is NOT for Commercial-Use Release of HBN-EEG, the EEG and (soon-released) Eye-Tracking Section of the Child Mind Network Healthy Brain Network (HBN) Project, curated into the Brain Imaging Data Structure (BIDS) format. This dataset is part of a larger initiative to advance the understanding of child and adolescent mental health through collecting and analyzing neuroimaging, behavioral, and genetic data (Alexander et al., Sci Data 2017).

Data Description

This dataset comprises electroencephalogram (EEG) data and behavioral responses collected during EEG experiments from participants involved in the HBN project.

Contents

*EEG Data: High-resolution EEG recordings capture a wide range of neural activity during various tasks. *Behavioral Responses: Participant responses during EEG tasks, including reaction times and accuracy. This data was originally recorded within the behavior directory of the HBN data. This data is now included with the EEG data within the_events. tsv` files.

Special Features

*Hierarchical Event Descriptors (HED): Events, including the original EEG events and the included behavioral events, have clear explanations, including proper HED annotation suitable for systematic meta and mega analysis of the data. *P-Factor, Attention, Internalization and Externalization: Derived from behavioral questionnaires, these factors provide valuable insights into the internalizing and externalizing behaviors of participants, adding a rich layer of psychological interpretation to the EEG and behavioral data. *Data quality and availability: We performed minimal quality control to ensure that the data was not corrupted, each task had its necessary events, and was ready for preprocessing. The results of this quality control are available in the participants.tsv file.

API Reference#

Use the NM000103 class to access this dataset programmatically.

class eegdash.dataset.NM000103(cache_dir: str, query: dict | None = None, s3_bucket: str | None = None, **kwargs)[source]#

Bases: EEGDashDataset

OpenNeuro dataset nm000103. Modality: eeg; Experiment type: Unknown; Subject type: Development. Subjects: 447; recordings: 3522; tasks: 10.

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.
