+## About Dataset
+
+This is a dataset of EEG brainwave data that has been processed with our method of statistical feature extraction
+
+Code for extraction of features - https://github.com/jordan-bird/eeg-feature-generation
+This dataset is the output of the above
+
+The data was collected from four people (2 male, 2 female) for 60 seconds per state - relaxed, concentrating, neutral. We used a Muse EEG headband which recorded the TP9, AF7, AF8 and TP10 EEG placements via dry electrodes.
+
+Our method of statistical extraction resampled the data since waves must be mathematically described in a temporal fashion.
+
