EEG signals of various subjects in text files are uploaded. It can be useful for various EEG signal processing algorithms- filtering, linear prediction, abnormality detection, PCA, ICA etc.

These files contain the raw data and processing parameters to go with the paper "Hierarchical structure guides rapid linguistic predictions during naturalistic listening" by Jonathan R. Brennan and John T. Hale. These files include the stimulus (wav files), raw data (BrainVision format), data processing parameters (matlab), and variables used to align the stimuli with the EEG data and for the statistical analyses reported in the paper (csv spreadsheet). ;Updates in Version 2:

• data in BrainVision format
• added information about data analysis
• corrected prePROCessing information for S02

This dataset contains EEG recordings from 18 subjects listening to one of two competing speech audio streams. Continuous speech in trials of ~50 sec. was presented to normal hearing listeners in simulated rooms with different degrees of reverberation. Subjects were asked to attend one of two spatially separated speakers (one male, one female) and ignore the other. Repeated trials with presentation of a single talker were also recorded. The data were recorded in a double-walled soundproof booth at the Technical University of Denmark (DTU) using a 64-channel Biosemi system and digitized at a sampling rate of 512 Hz. Full details can be found in:

Welcome to the resting state EEG dataset collected at the University of San Diego and curated by Alex Rockhill at the University of Oregon.

Please email arockhil@uoregon.edu before submitting a manuscript to be published in a peer-reviewed journal using this data, we wish to ensure that the data to be analyzed and interpreted with scientific integrity so as not to mislead the public about findings that may have clinical relevance. The purpose of this is to be responsible stewards of the data without an "available upon reasonable request" clause that we feel doesn't fully represent the open-source, reproducible ethos. The data is freely available to download so we cannot stop your publication if we don't support your methods and interpretation of findings, however, in being good data stewards, we would like to offer suggestions in the pre-publication stage so as to reduce conflict in published scientific literature. As far as credit, there is precedent for receiving a mention in the acknowledgements section for reading and providing feedback on the paper or, for more involved consulting, being included as an author may be warranted. The purpose of asking for this is not to inflate our number of authorships; we take ethical considerations of the best way to handle intellectual property in the form of manuscripts very seriously, and, again, sharing is at the discretion of the author although we strongly recommend it. Please be ethical and considerate in your use of this data and all open-source data and be sure to credit authors by citing them.

An example of an analysis that we could consider problematic and would strongly advice to be corrected before submission to a publication would be using machine learning to classify Parkinson's patients from healthy controls using this dataset. This is because there are far too few patients for proper statistics. Parkinson's disease presents heterogeneously across patients, and, with a proper test-training split, there would be fewer than 8 patients in the testing set. Statistics on 8 or fewer patients for such a complicated diease would be inaccurate due to having too small of a sample size. Furthermore, if multiple machine learning algorithms were desired to be tested, a third split would be required to choose the best method, further lowering the number of patients in the testing set. We strongly advise against using any such approach because it would mislead patients and people who are interested in knowing if they have Parkinson's disease.

Note that UPDRS rating scales were collected by laboratory personnel who had completed online training and not a board-certified neurologist. Results should be interpreted accordingly, especially that analyses based largely on these ratings should be taken with the appropriate amount of uncertainty.

This data set consists of electroencephalography (EEG) data from 50 (Subject1 – Subject50) participants with acute ischemic stroke aged between 30 and 77 years. The participants included 39 male and 11 female. The time after stroke ranged from 1 days to 30 days. 22 participants had right hemisphere hemiplegia and 28 participants had left hemisphere hemiplegia. All participants were originally right-handed. Each of the participants sat in front of a computer screen with an arm resting on a pillow on their lap or on a table and they carried out the instructions given on the computer screen. At the trial start, a picture with text description which was circulated with left right hand, were presented for 2s. We asked the participants to focus their mind on the hand motor imagery which was instructed, at the same time, the video of ipsilateral hand movement is displayed on the computer screen and lasts for 4s. Next, take a 2s break.

Recent advances in computational power availibility and cloud computing has prompted extensive research in epileptic seizure detection and prediction. EEG (electroencephalogram) datasets from ‘Dept. of Epileptology, Univ. of Bonn’ and ‘CHB-MIT Scalp EEG Database’ are publically available datasets which are the most sought after amongst researchers. Bonn dataset is very small compared to CHB-MIT. But still researchers prefer Bonn as it is in simple '.txt' format. The dataset being published here is a preprocessed form of CHB-MIT. The dataset is available in '.csv' format. Machine learning and Deep learning models are easily implementable with aid of '.csv' format.

The dataset comprised 14 patients with paranoid schizophrenia and 14 healthy controls. Data were acquired with the sampling frequency of 250 Hz using the standard 10-20 EEG montage with 19 EEG channels: Fp1, Fp2, F7, F3, Fz, F4, F8, T3, C3, Cz, C4, T4, T5, P3, Pz, P4, T6, O1, O2. The reference electrode was placed between electrodes Fz and Cz.

This dataset includes EEG responses from 21 subjects to 12 different stimuli, across 3 different chronologically disjointed sessions. We have also considered stimuli aimed to elicit different affective states, so as to facilitate future research on the influence of emotions on EEG-based biometric tasks. In addition, we provide a baseline performance analysis to outline the potential of consumer-grade EEG devices for subject identification and verification. It must be noted that, in this work, EEG data were acquired in a controlled environment in order to reduce the variability in the acquired data stemming from external conditions.

Dataset I: This is the original EEG data of twelve healthy subjects for driver fatigue detection. Due to personal privacy, the digital number represents different participants. The .cnt files were created by a 40-channel Neuroscan amplifier, including the EEG data in two states in the process of driving.Dataset II: This project adopted an event-related lane-departure paradigm in a virtual-reality (VR) dynamic driving simulator to quantitatively measure brain EEG dynamics along with the fluctuation of task performance throughout the experiment.All subjects were required to have driving license. None of the participants had a history of psychological disorders. All participants were instructed to sustain their attention to perform the task during the experiment, and the 32-ch EEG signals and the vehicle position were recorded simultaneously.Prior to the experiment, all participants completed a consent form stating their clear understanding of the experimental protocol which had been approved by Institutional Review Broad of Taipei Veterans General Hospital, Taiwan.Experiment:All subjects participated in the sustained-attention driving experiment for 1.5 hours in the afternoon (13:00-14:00) after lunch, and all of them were asked to keep their attention focused on driving during the entire period. There was no break or resting session. At the beginning of the experiment (without any recordings), a five-minute pre-test was performed to ensure that every subject understood the instructions and they did not suffer from simulator-induced nausea. To investigate the effect of kinesthesia on brain activity in the sustained-attention driving task, each subject was asked to participate at least two driving sessions on different days. Each session lasted for about 90 min. One was the driving session with a fixed-based simulator but with no kinesthetic feedback, so subject had to monitor the vehicle deviation visually from the virtual scene.The other driving session involved a motion-based simulator with a six degree-of-freedom Stewart platform to simulate the dynamic response of the vehicle to the deviation event or steering. The visual and kinesthetic inputs together aroused the subject to attend to the deviation event and take action to correct the driving trajectory Data Requirement.A wired EEG cap with 32 Ag/AgCl electrodes, including 30 EEG electrodes and two reference electrodes (opposite lateral mastoids) was used to record the electrical activity of the brain from the scalp during the driving task. The EEG electrodes were placed according to a modified international 10-20 system. The contact impedance between all electrodes and the skin was kept

SAM 40: Dataset of 40 subject EEG recordings to monitor the induced-stress while performing Stroop color-word test, arithmetic task, and mirror image recognition task

presents a collection of electroencephalogram (EEG) data recorded from 40 subjects (female: 14, male: 26, mean age: 21.5 years). The dataset was recorded from the subjects while performing various tasks such as Stroop color-word test, solving arithmetic questions, identification of symmetric mirror images, and a state of relaxation. The experiment was primarily conducted to monitor the short-term stress elicited in an individual while performing the aforementioned cognitive tasks. The individual tasks were carried out for 25 s and were repeated to record three trials. The EEG was recorded using a 32-channel Emotiv Epoc Flex gel kit. The EEG data were then segmented into non-overlapping epochs of 25 s depending on the various tasks performed by the subjects. The EEG data were further processed to remove the baseline drifts by subtracting the average trend obtained using the Savitzky-Golay filter. Furthermore, the artifacts were also removed from the EEG data by applying wavelet thresholding. The dataset proposed in this paper can aid and support the research activities in the field of brain-computer interface and can also be used in the identification of patterns in the EEG data elicited due to stress.

The database consists of EEG recordings of 14 patients acquired at the Unit of Neurology and Neurophysiology of the University of Siena. Subjects include 9 males (ages 25-71) and 5 females (ages 20-58). Subjects were monitored with a Video-EEG with a sampling rate of 512 Hz, with electrodes arranged on the basis of the international 10-20 System. Most of the recordings also contain 1 or 2 EKG signals. The diagnosis of epilepsy and the classification of seizures according to the criteria of the International League Against Epilepsy were performed by an expert clinician after a careful review of the clinical and electrophysiological data of each patient.

This data presents a collection of EEG recordings of seven participants with Intellectual and Developmental Disorder (IDD) and seven Typically Developing Controls (TDC). The data is recorded while the participants observe a resting state and a soothing music stimuli. The data was collected using a high-resolution multi-channel dry-electrode system from EMOTIV called EPOC+. This is a 14-channel device with two reference channels and a sampling frequency of 128 Hz. The data was collected in a noise-isolated room. The participants were informed of the experimental procedure, related risks and were asked to keep their eyes closed throughout the experiment. The data is provided in two formats, (1) Raw EEG data and (2) Pre-processed and clean EEG data for both the group of participants. This data can be used to explore the functional brain connectivity of the IDD group. In addition, behavioral information like IQ, SQ, music apprehension and facial expressions (emotion) for IDD participants is provided in file “QualitativeData.xlsx".

Data Usage: The data is arranged as follows: 1. Raw Data: Data/RawData/RawData_TDC/Music and Rest Data/RawData/RawData_IDD/Music and Rest 2. Clean Data Data/CleanData/CleanData_TDC/Music and Rest Data/CleanData/CleanData_IDD/Music and Rest

The dataset comes along with a fully automated EEG pre-processing pipeline. This pipeline can be used to do batch-processing of raw EEG files to obtain clean and pre-processed EEG files. Key features of this pipeline are : (1) Bandpass filtering (2) Linenoise removal (3) Channel selection (4) Independent Component Analysis (ICA) (5) Automatic artifact rejection All the required files are present in the Pipeline folder.

Class: ADHD/Control

ID: Patient ID

Participants were 61 children with ADHD and 60 healthy controls (boys and girls, ages 7-12). The ADHD children were diagnosed by an experienced psychiatrist to DSM-IV criteria, and have taken Ritalin for up to 6 months. None of the children in the control group had a history of psychiatric disorders, epilepsy, or any report of high-risk behaviors.

EEG recording was performed based on 10-20 standard by 19 channels (Fz, Cz, Pz, C3, T3, C4, T4, Fp1, Fp2, F3, F4, F7, F8, P3, P4, T5, T6, O1, O2) at 128 Hz sampling frequency. The A1 and A2 electrodes were the references located on earlobes.

Since one of the deficits in ADHD children is visual attention, the EEG recording protocol was based on visual attention tasks. In the task, a set of pictures of cartoon characters was shown to the children and they were asked to count the characters. The number of characters in each image was randomly selected between 5 and 16, and the size of the pictures was large enough to be easily visible and countable by children. To have a continuous stimulus during the signal recording, each image was displayed immediately and uninterrupted after the child’s response. Thus, the duration of EEG recording throughout this cognitive visual task was dependent on the child’s performance (i.e. response speed).
