EMMT EEG-to-Text Dataset
This dataset contains preprocessed EEG brain signals recorded while participants read English sentences and translated them to Czech. It is derived from the EMMT (Eyetracked Multi-Modal Translation) corpus.
Dataset Structure
Splits
| Split | Samples | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Train | 576 | Training set (70% of participants) |
| Validation | 128 | Validation set (15% of participants) |
| Test | 160 | Test set (15% of participants) |
Important: Splits are done by participant to prevent data leakage. Different participants may read the same sentences, ensuring the model learns to generalize across individuals.
Data Fields
Each sample contains:
participant_id(string): Anonymized participant identifier (e.g., "P01", "P02")sentence_id(string): Sentence identifier (e.g., "S001", "S062")sentence_text(string): The English sentence that was being readword_eeg_segments(3D array): Word-level EEG data- Shape:
[num_words, time_samples, 4_channels] - Each word has its own EEG segment extracted using gaze-timestamp alignment
- Time samples vary per word (typically 50-200 samples = 200-800ms @ 256Hz)
- Shape:
num_words(int): Number of words in the sentenceeeg_shape(string): Human-readable shape info (e.g., "15words_x_128time_x_4channels")has_gaze_alignment(bool): Whether gaze-based alignment was used
Preprocessing Pipeline
The EEG data has been preprocessed with standard neuroscience techniques:
- Notch Filter: 50Hz (removes electrical power line noise)
- Bandpass Filter: 0.5-50Hz (keeps relevant brain frequencies, removes drift and high-freq noise)
- Robust Scaling: Normalization robust to eye blinks and movement artifacts
- Gaze-Timestamp Alignment: EEG segments aligned to actual word reading times using eye-tracking fixations

EEG Channel Information
The 4 EEG channels capture different brain regions relevant to language processing:
| Channel | Location | Brain Region | Function |
|---|---|---|---|
| RAW_TP9 | Left temporal-parietal | Language processing | Semantic understanding, memory |
| RAW_AF7 | Left anterior-frontal | Executive function | Attention, working memory |
| RAW_AF8 | Right anterior-frontal | Executive function | Attention, cognitive control |
| RAW_TP10 | Right temporal-parietal | Visual-spatial | Visual processing, attention |
Original EMMT Experiment
The data comes from the EMMT (Eyetracked Multi-Modal Translation) corpus, which recorded participants performing a multimodal translation task:
- READ: Read English sentence aloud
- TRANSLATE: Translate to Czech aloud
- SEE: View accompanying image
- UPDATE: Update or repeat translation
This dataset contains EEG data from the READ stage, aligned to word-level using eye-tracking fixations.
