This repo is currently a work in progress to make Deep Learning on EEG more accessible!
There exist multiple available (public) EEG datasets.
Here are 2 good list of public datasets:
1. Open Datasets in Human Electrophysiology (Tom Donoghue, VoytekLab)
2. EEG / ERP data available for free public download (UCSD)
This series of workshops will focus on 5 categories: Sleep, Epilepsy, BCI, Emotions, Workload
One quick way to look at an EDF file is via EDFBrowser. You won't be able to do any scripting, but just to look at the channels, the quality of the data, etc. It works well.
(Insert Print Screen of EDFBrowser)
You might encounter different file and data format (e.g. text file, csv file, edf file, etc.)
It could be a file with 1 column with values representing 1 sample every X (sampling rate) representing the amplitude(micro) volts.
