MEG-SCANS - A comprehensive magnetoencephalography speech dataset with Stories, Chirps And Noisy Sentences.

MEG-SCANS is a comprehensive magnetoencephalography dataset comprising raw and MaxFiltered recordings from 24 German-speaking participants engaged in auditory experiments. The dataset includes approximately one hour of stimuli per participant consisting of audiobooks, sentences from the Oldenburger Matrix Sentence Test at varying intelligibility levels for speech reception threshold assessment, and chirp stimuli for signal quality evaluation. Each participant's data includes raw and processed MEG recordings, empty-room recordings, structural MRI, behavioral audiograms, and corresponding audio stimulus materials, organized according to BIDS standards to facilitate large-scale encoding/decoding analyses of neural responses to speech.

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/on006468), 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 on006468
    cd on006468 && nemar dataset get
  3. Just the files.

    rclone, aria2c, or any HTTPS client works against data.nemar.org/on006468/ — 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.
