# Scent of Health (S-O-H) Dataset ## Overview The **Scent of Health (S-O-H)** dataset is the largest public clinical electronic nose (eNose) collection for non-invasive disease screening via exhaled breath analysis. It comprises **1,234 patients** across **eight diagnostic groups** (healthy controls and seven diseases), each providing a **17-channel multivariate time series** of breath measurements. | Property | Value | |----------|-------| | **Patients** | 1,234 | | **Diagnostic groups** | 9 (healthy + 8 diseases) | | **Time series channels** | 17 (eNose sensors) + auxiliary sensors | | **Sampling rate** | 0.4 Hz | | **Duration per sample** | 895 seconds (~15 minutes) | | **Collection period** | 13 consecutive weeks | | **Clinical sites** | 2 | ## Repository Structure ``` S-OH/ ├── README.md # This file ├── LICENSE.txt # MIT License ├── metadata.csv # Patient metadata (demographics, diagnosis, site, week) ├── data/ │ ├── manifest.json # Index of all patient files │ ├── Z00/ # Healthy controls │ │ ├── patient_1.json │ │ ├── patient_2.json │ │ └── ... │ ├── B18/ # Hepatitis B/C │ │ ├── patient_10.json │ │ └── ... │ ├── K29/ # Gastritis and duodenitis │ ├── K76/ # Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease │ ├── E11/ # Diabetes mellitus type II │ ├── N18/ # Chronic renal failure │ ├── J44/ # COPD │ ├── C34/ # Lung cancer │ └── A15/ # Respiratory tuberculosis └── scripts/ ├── quick_start.py # Load metadata and patient JSONs ├── validate_metadata.py # Metadata check ├── validate_temporal_splits.py # Temporal splits check ├── baseline_lstm_lung_cancer.py # Example: ML/AI Use Case (LSTM baseline for C34) ├── baseline_cnn_z00.py # Temporal splits check └── baseline_resnet18_z00.py # Example: ML/AI Use Case (LSTM baseline for C34) ``` ## Dataset Structure ### `metadata.csv` CSV file containing patient metadata with the following columns: | Column | Description | |--------|-------------| | `Patient_id` | Unique patient identifier | | `Patient_age` | Age in years | | `Patient_gender` | Gender (0 = female, 1 = male) | | `Diagnosis` | ICD-10 diagnosis code | | `D_class` | Disease class (0–7) | | `D_bin_class` | Binary class for one-vs-rest classification | | `Datetime` | Collection timestamp | | `Week` | Collection week (1–13) | | `Site` | Clinical site (SiteA or CiteB) | ### `data/` - Per-Patient JSON Files Each patient is stored as a separate JSON file in a subdirectory named after their ICD-10 diagnosis code. The file name format is `patient_{Patient_id}.json`. Example path: `data/Z00/patient_1.json`. Each patient JSON file has the following structure: ```json { "patient_id": 1, "patient_diag_class": 0, "startDateTime": "2025-09-01T08:05:47.676148Z", "startTimeGases": 20, "endTimeGases": 450, "durationSec": 895, "sensors": [ { "id": "enose", "sampleRate": 0.4, "channels": [ {"id": "R1", "samples": [float, ...]}, {"id": "R2", "samples": [float, ...]}, ... {"id": "R17", "samples": [float, ...]}, {"id": "humidity", "samples": [float, ...]}, {"id": "temperature", "samples": [float, ...]} ] }, { "id": "ze03", "sampleRate": 0.4, "channels": [{"id": "0", "samples": [float, ...]}] }, { "id": "mhz14", "sampleRate": 0.4, "channels": [{"id": "0", "samples": [float, ...]}] }, { "id": "ze08", "sampleRate": 0.4, "channels": [{"id": "0", "samples": [float, ...]}] }, { "id": "bme280", "sampleRate": 0.4, "channels": [ {"id": "pressure", "samples": [float, ...]}, {"id": "temperature", "samples": [float, ...]}, {"id": "humidity", "samples": [float, ...]} ] } ] } ``` ### `data/manifest.json` Index file mapping patient IDs to their JSON file paths: ```json { "total_patients": 1234, "files": [ {"patient_id": 1, "diagnosis": "Z00", "file": "Z00/patient_1.json"}, {"patient_id": 2, "diagnosis": "Z00", "file": "Z00/patient_2.json"}, ... ] } ``` ### `scripts/` Utility scripts for loading and processing the dataset. ## eNose Channels (17 channels) The eNose sensor array consists of 17 channels printed on a single chip: | Channel ID | Material | |-------------|-----------| | R1–R17 | ZnO and metal-doped ZnO (In-ZnO, Ag-ZnO, Ce-ZnO, Ni-ZnO) | ## Auxiliary Sensors | Sensor ID | Measurements | |-------------|-----------| | ze03 | Ozone (O₃) | | mhz14 | Carbon dioxide (CO₂) | | ze08 | Carbon monoxide (CO) | | bme280 | Pressure, temperature, humidity | ## Quick Start ``` python import json import pandas as pd # 1. Load metadata metadata = pd.read_csv('../metadata.csv') # 2. Load patient data via manifest with open('../data/manifest.json', 'r') as f: manifest = json.load(f) # 3. Load a specific patient patient_id, icd = '1', 'Z00' entry = next(e for e in manifest['files'] if e['patient_id'] == patient_id) with open(f"../data/{icd}/{entry['file']}", 'r') as f: patient_data = json.load(f) # 4. Extract eNose signals for sensor in patient_data['sensors']: if sensor['id'] == 'enose': for channel in sensor['channels']: print(f"{channel['id']}: {len(channel['samples'])} samples") ``` ## Temporal Train/Test Splits The dataset includes explicit temporal splits to enable drift-aware evaluation. For each disease, test weeks were selected to be temporally separated from training weeks, simulating real-world deployment conditions. ## Ethics - The study protocol was approved by the Local Ethics Committee at Anonymized Clinical Institute (SiteA) and Anonymized Research Institute (SiteB). - All participants provided written informed consent. ## Citation If you use this dataset in your research, please cite: ``` bibtex @article{soh2026, title = {Scent of Health (S-OH): Olfactory Multivariate Time Series Dataset for Non-Invasive Disease Screening}, author = {Anonymized and ...}, journal = {MICCAI Open Data}, year = {2026} } ``` ## License This dataset is released under the **MIT License**.
