Reward biases spontaneous neural reactivation during sleep

This dataset comprises neuroimaging and electrophysiological recordings from 18 participants who engaged in reward-based cognitive tasks during wakefulness followed by sleep monitoring in an MRI scanner. Participants played two games (FACE and MAZE) during 3T fMRI acquisition, with one game designated as rewarded and the other as non-rewarded. Subsequent sleep sessions were recorded with simultaneous 64-channel EEG and fMRI for 1-2 hours, during which participants reached either N2 or N3 sleep stages, followed by a memory test. The dataset enables investigation of how reward biases spontaneous neural reactivation during sleep through multimodal neuroimaging analysis.

cd on003574 && git annex get .
  5. Direct files (wget / curl / rclone)

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

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/on003574), 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 on003574
cd on003574 && nemar dataset get
  3. Just the files.

    rclone, aria2c, or any HTTPS client works against data.nemar.org/on003574/ — 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.

    How to download

    The dataset
    nemar dataset download on003574 Clones and fetches in one step. Content under stimuli/ and derivatives/ is skipped by default because those trees can be large; add --stimuli --derivatives for the whole thing.
    A subset, one step
    nemar dataset download on003574 --subjects sub-01,02 Also filters by --sessions, --tasks, --runs, --datatypes, --include and --exclude.
    A subset, step 1
    nemar dataset clone on003574 Clones git-annex pointers only; fetches no file content. Creates ./on003574.
    A subset, step 2
    cd on003574 The get command below reads the clone's annex, so it only works from inside the clone.
    A subset, step 3
    nemar dataset get <files> Pulls the files you actually need. Skips stimuli/ and derivatives/ unless the path you ask for is under one of them.
    One small file
    https://data.nemar.org/on003574/v1.0.0/participants.tsv A direct HTTPS fetch works for any single file.

    Working with the Zarr copy

    1. Start at the index
    https://zarr.nemar.org/on003574/zarr/index.json The mandatory entry point. Never hardcode a bucket path.
    2. Pick a store entry
    stores[].zarr, stores[].groups[].name These two fields exist in every index format version, so a recipe that keys on them works against the whole catalog while the back conversion is still in flight.
    3. Build the store URI
    s3://nemar/on003574/zarr/{store.zarr} Derivable from the store entry alone. An index at format_version 3 or later also publishes contract_base, data_base and s3_uri; use them when they are there, never require them.
    4. Open the store anonymously
    zarr.open_group(store=..., mode="r", zarr_format=3) Anonymous FsspecStore.from_url in region us-east-2, no credentials. zarr_format=3 is required: without it zarr-python probes for Zarr v2 sidecars, and because anonymous ListBucket is denied, S3 answers a missing key with 403 rather than 404 and the open raises.
    5. Read the level-0 array
    root[store.groups[0].name]["0"] Level 0 is the full-rate signal. Never read a view/ array for inference; those exist for display.
    6. Dequantize the samples
    physical = digital * scale + offset scale and offset are attributes of the level-0 array, one entry per channel; the unit is on the group's channels attribute.
    7. Slice, don't download
    signal[0:4, 0:500] Stream a window of channels and samples; download only when you will touch most of the array.
    8. Know the HTTP contract
    index.json Only index.json is always proxied and edge-cached. A plain GET for a store object, manifest.json or events.parquet 302s to the public S3 object for non-browser clients, so follow redirects, and HEAD is never redirected.
    9. Read the attribution before reuse
    root.attrs["nemar"] The store carries its own dataset id, DOI, license, citation and source commit.
    10. Filter for pipelines
    has_zarr=1 This is the converted filter. has_zarr_verified is the stricter one, and its result set can be empty until the daily fidelity sweep reaches a dataset; verification is reported, never a precondition for serving (nemar-cli ADR 0005).
