This dataset card contains data from the original [Basenji project](https://console.cloud.google.com/storage/browser/basenji_barnyard?inv=1&invt=AbzSKw). The original Basenji dataset has two main limitations:

1. **Format**: Data is stored in TensorFlow format, which is not directly compatible with PyTorch workflows
2. **Cost**: Users need to pay Google Cloud storage fees to download the data

To facilitate PyTorch-based training, we have downloaded and converted the data to H5 format for our research usage (https://huggingface.co/papers/2506.01833). With permission from the original Basenji authors, we are releasing the H5-formatted data here for free access.

## 📁 Key Files

- `human_train.h5`, `human_valid.h5`, `human_test.h5`
- `mouse_train.h5`, `mouse_valid.h5`, `mouse_test.h5`

## 📦 File Splitting & Reconstruction

Since the training files exceed 50GB and cannot be directly uploaded to 🤗 Hugging Face, we split them using the following commands:

```bash
split -b 45G -d -a 2 human_train.h5 human_train_part_
split -b 45G -d -a 2 mouse_train.h5 mouse_train_part_
```

After downloading all part files, you need to reconstruct the original H5 files:
```
# Reconstruct human_train.h5
cat human_train_part_* > human_train.h5

# Reconstruct mouse_train.h5  
cat mouse_train_part_* > mouse_train.h5
```
