Dealing with no metadata

[yjmantilla]

There are 2 ways to deal with this:

• Supporting ARTEM-IS ARTEM-IS web app: working towards an Agreed Reporting Template for EEG Methodology (International Standard) ohbm/hackathon2021#11
• User inputs info through the rules file
• preprocess the file and convert it to another format (edf,brainvision...)

For the use case of tabular eeg data (ie csv) which comes from portables systems (open-bci) this is specially important. The pipeline would be sort of:

• read array data from the tabular file
• read metadata from rules or from the ARTEM-IS standard
• create an raw mne object from it using that information see this tutorial
• convert the data to brainvision (mne)

@DanielLoaizal Try to do a pipeline for dealing with tabular eeg-data. For now assume the rules contains the necessary metadata. You may also explore what kind of data is collected through ARTEM-IS.

See this link for the minimal data we need for BIDS ( to the best of my knowledge)

Hello @yjmantilla
Can you introduce Daniel to us? Is he a collaborator of yours?
Is open-bci something you work with in Antioquia?

@civier Hi, Civier. My name is Daniel, I'm a Bioengineer and I work with Yorguin at the Gruneco's lab. It's a pleasure to work with all of you.
And yes, we work with portable EEG, especifically with OpenBCI. In a past works we saw many problems with the portable EEG data management, it tabular data and the lack of integration of the associated metadata. Hope we can help to fix that in this collaboration.

@civier Guess he beat me to the introduction hehe. As he said, the lab has open-bci equipment (besides the Neuroscan system I told you about).
