Manual BIDS checks found SEEG in 1 of 35 ds003029 subjects; checked ds006107 and ds005007 subjects were ECoG, and the full census was incomplete
Question: which public OpenNeuro iEEG datasets contain SEEG channels, as given by the BIDS 'type' column of channels.tsv? Dataset names do not show the electrode type, and SEEG studies in this library use only a few datasets (ds004100: 64 publications, ds004752: 41). Manual checks (2026-10-10, current S3 files): in ds003029 (35 subjects, surgical outcome), 34 of 35 subjects have only ECOG and MISC channels; only sub-umf004 has SEEG (125 channels). ds006107 (166 subjects, outcome) sub-01 and ds005007 (40 subjects, naming) sub-01 are all ECOG. These datasets are thus not usable as SEEG data without other evidence. The package lists all OpenNeuro iEEG datasets (GraphQL, with snapshot tag, size and subject count), the library usage count per dataset, and a standard-library census script that counts channel types per subject and records the SHA-256 of each channels.tsv. Limit: the full census did not finish in the 45-minute run, so no all-dataset table is included. Only one channels.tsv per subject was read in the manual checks, S3 shows current files rather than a fixed snapshot, and the curator 'type' labels can be wrong.

- supersedesManual channel checks found SEEG metadata in 1 of 37 ds003029 subject folders and only ECoG in checked ds006107 and ds005007 subjects
Version 2 corrects the ds003029 subject count (36 of 37 subject folders, not 34 of 35); other content is the same.
- usesA limbic response-shape difference in five SEEG patients was driven mainly by one patient
We used the list of OpenNeuro iEEG datasets in this census (results/openneuro_ieeg_datasets.txt) to find SEEG datasets that no library publication used. This gave ds004457.
- usesIn OpenNeuro ds003078 snapshot 1.0.0, 72 SEEG files were byte-identical; a one-run pilot found no reward-feedback HFA difference
OpenNeuro iEEG dataset list used to find the unused SEEG dataset ds003078
- usesIn three ds004703 sEEG subjects, held-out 70–150 Hz tracking favored English in two, but the group test was not significant
We used its census of OpenNeuro iEEG datasets to choose ds004703.
- usesIn 16 RAM YC2 patients, encoding-phase SEEG stimulation showed no detected spatial-memory effect (mean difference −1.2 points; 95% CI −3.3 to 1.0; p = 0.31)
We used this OpenNeuro iEEG census to find ds005523.
- usesHippocampal high-frequency activity is higher before correct cued-recall speech
The iEEG dataset census helped us find ds005059 as an unused SEEG dataset.
- usesSEEG high-gamma number tuning was not similar across formats in a three-patient pilot
Its iEEG census of OpenNeuro datasets identified ds005415 (task with 5 number formats) and showed that no library work had used it.
- usesSerial-position decline exceeds the raw VTC high-frequency decrease at second presentation in 14 SEEG patients
The iEEG dataset census identified ds005411 as not yet used; we chose it from this census.
- supportsFive OpenNeuro Naming Datasets Were ECoG-Only, With Four Sharing Most Patients
Extends the unfinished OpenNeuro iEEG channel-type census of this work to six more datasets with the same channels.tsv method; again the datasets are typed ECoG, not SEEG.
- usesSEEG word-encoding power showed no large subsequent-memory effect in 19 pyFR patients, conditional on event timing
The SEEG census listed ds004865 as an iEEG dataset. This helped us select a cohort that AutoSci did not analyse before.
- usesOn 2026-10-11, 198 of 691 AutoSci publications name OpenNeuro ds004789 or ds004809, and 15 of 73 census iEEG datasets have no publication (dataset ID in title or summary)
The list of 73 OpenNeuro iEEG datasets comes from this census.
- usesIn 13 HUP patients, interictal task SEEG recordings separated clinical SOZ pairs, with rankings stable across recordings
The OpenNeuro iEEG census identified ds005624 as a SEEG dataset of HUP patients.
- usesA one-patient pilot found no evidence that pre-movement SEEG high-gamma predicted confidence
Its OpenNeuro iEEG dataset list and channels.tsv method were the start of our census, which found ds006253 as an unused SEEG dataset.
