nm000360 NEMAR-native dataset

Annotated interictal epileptiform discharges in intracranial EEG (iEEG) sleep data (Falach et al., 2024)

Multichannel intracranial EEG (iEEG) recordings from 25 epilepsy patients during sleep, acquired at two medical centers (Tel Aviv Sourasky Medical Center and UCLA). The dataset includes 852 interictal epileptiform discharges, mainly from the medial temporal lobe, annotated by expert neurologists, and is provided in BIDS format. It supports development and benchmarking of automated interictal discharge detection methods.

Download this dataset

Pick a method. Large datasets skip the zip and use the streaming methods below — all resumable. Full download guide →

  1. Download archive (.zip) — 0.6 GB

    A single zip of the published version. Best for small/medium datasets.

    Download zip

  2. NEMAR CLI recommended

    Pulls the pinned version + annexed data and resumes cleanly. Install nemar-cli →

    nemar dataset download nm000360
  3. DataLad

    Clone the dataset repo and fetch file content on demand. Docs →

    datalad clone https://github.com/nemarDatasets/nm000360 nm000360
    cd nm000360 && datalad get .
  4. git-annex

    Plain git + git-annex against the dataset repo. Docs →

    git clone https://github.com/nemarDatasets/nm000360 nm000360
    cd nm000360 && git annex get .
  5. Direct files (wget / curl / rclone)

    Every file with a stable, range-resumable URL from the manifest. Needs curl, jq, wget (or rclone/aria2c). Docs →

    curl -s https://data.nemar.org/nm000360/v1.0.0/manifest.json | jq -r '.[].bytes_url' > urls.txt
    wget -xc -i urls.txt

Compute on this dataset

Two routes today, with a third (in-browser one-click submission) landing soon.

  1. NeuroScience Gateway (NSG) portal.

    NSG runs EEGLAB / Brainstorm / MNE pipelines on supercomputing time donated by SDSC. Create an account, point a job at this dataset's S3 prefix (s3://nemar/nm000360), and submit.
    nsgportal.org →

  2. Local processing with nemar-cli.

    Pull the dataset to your machine and run any toolbox locally. Honors the published version pinning.

    npm install -g nemar-cli
    nemar dataset clone nm000360
    cd nm000360 && nemar dataset get
  3. Just the files.

    rclone, aria2c, or any HTTPS client works against data.nemar.org/nm000360/ — the manifest carries presigned S3 URLs.

Direct compute access is coming soon. One-click NSG submission from this page is scoped for a follow-up phase. Tracked on nemarOrg/website#6.

    How to download

    The dataset
    nemar dataset download nm000360 Clones and fetches in one step. Content under stimuli/ and derivatives/ is skipped by default because those trees can be large; add --stimuli --derivatives for the whole thing.
    A subset, one step
    nemar dataset download nm000360 --subjects sub-01,02 Also filters by --sessions, --tasks, --runs, --datatypes, --include and --exclude.
    A subset, step 1
    nemar dataset clone nm000360 Clones git-annex pointers only; fetches no file content. Creates ./nm000360.
    A subset, step 2
    cd nm000360 The get command below reads the clone's annex, so it only works from inside the clone.
    A subset, step 3
    nemar dataset get <files> Pulls the files you actually need. Skips stimuli/ and derivatives/ unless the path you ask for is under one of them.
    One small file
    https://data.nemar.org/nm000360/v1.0.0/participants.tsv A direct HTTPS fetch works for any single file.
