Dataset on Emotion with Naturalistic Stimuli (DENS)

The Dataset on Emotion with Naturalistic Stimuli (DENS) comprises multimodal physiological recordings from 40 participants exposed to emotionally evocative video stimuli. The dataset includes concurrent EEG, ECG, and EMG measurements alongside behavioral self-assessment ratings across multiple emotion dimensions (valence, arousal, dominance, liking, familiarity, relevance, and emotion category). This resource supports research on emotion recognition, affective neuroscience, and the neural correlates of emotional responses to naturalistic, contextually-rich stimuli.

Compute on this dataset

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

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/on003751), and submit.
nsgportal.org →
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 on003751
cd on003751 && nemar dataset get
```
Just the files.
rclone, aria2c, or any HTTPS client works against data.nemar.org/on003751/ — 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.
