nm000281 NEMAR-native dataset

emg2pose: Surface EMG and Hand Pose

This dataset is a NEMAR re-host and EMG-BIDS conversion of Meta's public emg2pose release, a large-scale benchmark pairing surface electromyography (sEMG) with hand pose estimation. It comprises 2 kHz, 16-channel wrist sEMG recordings synchronized with hand pose labels captured via a 26-camera motion-capture rig, spanning 193 users, 370 hours, and 29 behavioral stages with approximately 80 million labeled frames. The dataset supports research on EMG-based hand pose estimation and human-computer interaction.

Download this dataset

Pick a method. Large datasets skip the zip and use the streaming methods below — all resumable. Full download guide →

  1. NEMAR CLI recommended

    Pulls the pinned version + annexed data and resumes cleanly. Install nemar-cli →

    nemar dataset download nm000281
  2. DataLad

    Clone the dataset repo and fetch file content on demand. Docs →

    datalad clone https://github.com/nemarDatasets/nm000281 nm000281
    cd nm000281 && datalad get .
  3. git-annex

    Plain git + git-annex against the dataset repo. Docs →

    git clone https://github.com/nemarDatasets/nm000281 nm000281
    cd nm000281 && git annex get .
  4. Direct files (wget / curl / rclone)

    Every file with a stable, range-resumable URL from the manifest. Needs curl, jq, wget (or rclone/aria2c). Docs →

    curl -s https://data.nemar.org/nm000281/v1.0.0/manifest.json | jq -r '.[].bytes_url' > urls.txt
    wget -xc -i urls.txt

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/nm000281), 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 nm000281
    cd nm000281 && nemar dataset get
  3. Just the files.

    rclone, aria2c, or any HTTPS client works against data.nemar.org/nm000281/ — 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.
