Description: Portal and tools for sharing and editing neurophysiological and behavioral data for brain-machine interface research. Users can search for existing data or login with their Google, Facebook, or Twitter account and upload new data. Their main focus is on supporting brain-machine interface research, so we encourage users to not just provide recordings of brain activity data, but also information about stimuli, etc., so that statistical relationships can be found between stimuli and/or subject behavior and brain activity. The Matlab tools are for writing, reading, and converting Neuroshare files, the common file format. A free, open source desktop tool for editing neurophysiological data for brain-machine interface research is also available: https://github.com/ATR-DNI/BrainLiner Since data formats aren''''t standardized between programs and researchers, data and analysis programs for data cannot be easily shared. Neuroshare was selected as the common file format. Neuroshare can contain several types of neurophysiological data because of its high flexibility, including analog time-series data and neuronal spike timing. Some applications have plug-ins or libraries available that can read Neuroshare format files, thus making Neuroshare somewhat readily usable. Neuroshare can contain several types of neurophysiological data, but there were no easy tools to convert data into the Neuroshare format, so they made and are providing a Neuroshare Converter Library and Simple Converter using the library. In future work they will make and provide many more useful tools for data sharing. Shared experiments include: EMG signal, Takemiya Exp, Reconstruct (Visual image reconstruction from human brain activity using a combination of multi-scale local image decoders), SPIKE data, Speech Imagery Dataset (Single-trial classification of vowel speech imagery using common spatial patterns), Functional Multineuron Calcium Imaging (fMCI), Rock-paper-scissors (The data was obtained from subject while he make finger-form of rock/paper/scissors).
