DREAM database - Introduction to the data and model sharing initiative
Aug 5 (evening)
Lecturer: Gunnar Blohm
The DREAM project should be on the USB drives of a few different students. If you haven't yet, find someone who has the data and get it from them. DREAM can also be downloaded piece-wise (data sets, models, tools, and documentation) from CRCNS: http://crcns.org/data-sets/movements/dream/downloading-dream. You will need to create an account on CRCNS to be able to download the project files.
If you want "all" of DREAM (models, tools, and documentation), click here: AllDream.zip
- If you're familiar with svn and would like info/credentials for code in the repository, contact Ben Walker
Update: Here's the fixed version of LoadDreamPaths.m. (The originally distributed version had Windows directory formatting using '/' and would not work for *nix. This script should work for all OSes.)
Here is a description of data sets currently in Dream. Dream is growing, but this list is accurate as of the time of the summer school.
