Usage of this dataset

The braindecode toolbox at https://github.com/robintibor/braindecode provides code to load this dataset in python. You can run the following code to get an MNE RawArray:

from braindecode.datasets.bbci import  BBCIDataset
cnt = BBCIDataset(filename='./test/1.mat', load_sensor_names=None).load()

The example.py code in this repository shows how to reproduce the decoding results from the paper above.

Data format

The data are hdf5-files, the structure is based on the structure from the Berlin Brain Computer Interface Toolbox at https://github.com/bbci/bbci_public. Most fields have been removed, only some necessary fields are retained. We recommend to just use our loading code as above.

Details of recording

The recodings were referenced to Cz, however in our recording setup, some residual signal remains on Cz. Note that for subject 14, about half of the sensors lost meaningful signal in the test set. It is still possible to get far-above chance accuracies even when not accounting for this in any way when training on all sensors of the training set.
