Quickstart#

Install

pip install eegdash

Access the data

from eegdash.dataset import NM000231

dataset = NM000231(cache_dir="./data")
# Get the raw object of the first recording
raw = dataset.datasets[0].raw
print(raw.info)

Filter by subject

dataset = NM000231(cache_dir="./data", subject="01")

Advanced query

dataset = NM000231(
    cache_dir="./data",
    query={"subject": {"$in": ["01", "02"]}},
)

Iterate recordings

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

P300 dataset from Hoffmann et al 2008

Study:

nm000231 (NeMAR)

Author (year):

Hoffmann2008

Canonical:

EPFLP300, EPFL_P300, EPFLP300Dataset

Also importable as: NM000231, Hoffmann2008, EPFLP300, EPFL_P300, EPFLP300Dataset.

Modality: eeg; Experiment type: Attention; Subject type: Other. Subjects: 8; recordings: 192; 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.
