## 📢 News



> **A note from the EgoBrain Team (2026-07-02):**

>

> I want to apologize for the pause in EgoBrain dataset maintenance and updates since late April. This was mainly due to the preparation needed for attending ICLR 2026 in Brazil 🇧🇷, followed by other ongoing research threads after returning from the conference, as well as preparations for my upcoming visiting position at Carnegie Mellon University. **I'll be completing the release and update of all remaining data within the coming week**.

>

> Because egocentric video can easily contain information that reveals subject privacy, each video needs to be carefully reviewed and processed from scratch before release — this is why the process takes time. If you come across any content in the released EgoBrain data that you believe may reveal a subject's private information, please contact me immediately at nielin@iis.u-tokyo.ac.jp, and I will re-process and re-upload the corresponding video right away.

>

> Thank you for your patience and understanding — I hope we can build the EgoBrain community together.
