+# Public Release Overview
+
+This directory contains the public release of the plant electrophysiology dataset related to **insect herbivory**.
+
+Two folders are provided:
+
+- `Original-Record`
+- `HIPB-MM`
+
+## 1. `Original-Record`
+
+`Original-Record` contains the reorganized source recordings used to build the processed dataset.
+
+It is organized by class:
+
+- `M`
+- `N`
+- `T`
+- `X`
+
+Within each class, samples are grouped into individual folders.  
+These folders contain the original signal spreadsheets and their corresponding raw videos or shared video references.
+
+This folder is intended for:
+
+- inspecting the original public records
+- reproducing preprocessing and segmentation steps
+- tracing processed samples back to their source material
+
+## 2. `HIPB-MM`
+
+`HIPB-MM` is the processed multimodal dataset derived from `Original-Record`.
+
+It contains:
+
+- standardized 16-second plant electrical signal samples
+- aligned 16-second raw video clips
+- pre-extracted video features for direct model training
+
+This folder is intended for:
+
+- direct model development
+- multimodal learning experiments
+- benchmarking and reproducible training
+
+## Relationship Between the Two Folders
+
+`HIPB-MM` is generated from `Original-Record`.
+
+In other words:
+
+- `Original-Record` is the source-level public data
+- `HIPB-MM` is the model-ready processed dataset
+
+If you want to train or evaluate models directly, use `HIPB-MM`.  
+If you want to inspect raw files, rebuild preprocessing, or verify sample provenance, use `Original-Record`.
