| # AxoBench |
|
|
| AxoBench is a large-scale CoreNEURON corpus for training and evaluating |
| data-driven models of layer-5 pyramidal neurons. |
| It contains 125,000 six-second traces across multiple reconstructed |
| morphologies, with event inputs and paired somatic-voltage/spike targets. |
|
|
| Two companion datasets cover distinct evaluation settings: |
|
|
| - [`Axym-Labs/axobench-population`](https://huggingface.co/datasets/Axym-Labs/axobench-population) |
| contains population-compatible shards and connectivity context. |
| - [`Axym-Labs/axobench-interventions`](https://huggingface.co/datasets/Axym-Labs/axobench-interventions) |
| contains paired causal interventions. |
|
|
| ## Layout |
|
|
| - `train/`: 785 compressed NPZ shards, 100,000 traces. |
| - `val/`: 100 compressed NPZ shards, 12,500 traces. |
| - `test/`: 100 compressed NPZ shards, 12,500 traces. |
|
|
| Each compressed NPZ shard contains arrays including `inputs`, `targets`, and |
| `sample_ids`; the adjacent JSON file records shard-level provenance and |
| metadata. |
|
|
| ## Compression |
|
|
| The payload is stored as shard-wise deflated NPZ files, matching the practical |
| NeuronIO-style packaging while preserving partial downloads and resumable |
| uploads. Do not wrap this folder in one monolithic zip or tar archive for the |
| primary Hugging Face distribution: the shards are already compressed and an |
| outer archive would make subset access worse. |
|
|
| See `checksums.sha256` for file integrity checks. |
|
|
| ## Metadata |
|
|
| - `dataset_package_manifest.json`: split counts, sizes, and packaging details. |
| - `checksums.sha256`: SHA-256 checksums for all trace and shard-metadata files. |
|
|
| ## Access State |
|
|
| The public `test` split supports reproducible comparison. |
| An unreleased confirmation set is held separately and is not part of this Hub |
| repository. |
