Prediction of Finger Flexion IV Brain-Computer Interface Data Competition The goal of this dataset is to predict the flexion of individual fingers from signals recorded from the surface of the brain (electrocorticography (ECoG)). This data set contains brain signals from three subjects, as well as the time courses of the flexion of each of five fingers. The task in this competition is to use the provided flexion information in order to predict finger flexion for a provided test set. The performance of the classifier will be evaluated by calculating the average correlation coefficient r between actual and predicted finger flexion.

Electrophysiological data from implanted electrodes in the human brain are rare, and therefore scientific access to it has remained somewhat exclusive. Here we present a freely-available curated library of implanted electrocorticographic (ECoG) data and analyses for 16 benchmark behavioral experiments, with 204 individual datasets from 34 patients made with the same amplifiers (at the same sampling rate and filter settings). In every case, electrode positions have been carefully registered to brain anatomy. A large set of fully-commented analysis scripts to interpret these data using modern techniques is embedded in the library alongside the data. All data, anatomic correlations, and analysis files (MATLAB code) are in a common, intuitive file structure at https://searchworks.stanford.edu/view/zk881ps0522. The library may be used as course material or serve as a starter package for researchers early in their career or for established groups, to modify the analyses and re-apply them in
