Summary

General Description. This dataset consists of:

The threshold crossing times of extracellularly and simultaneously recorded spikes, sorted into units (up to five, including a "hash" unit), along with sorted waveform snippets, and, The x,y position of the fingertip of the reaching hand and the x,y position of reaching targets (both sampled at 250 Hz).

The behavioral task was to make self-paced reaches to targets arranged in a grid (e.g. 8x8) without gaps or pre-movement delay intervals. One monkey reached with the right arm (recordings made in the left hemisphere); The other reached with the left arm (right hemisphere). In some sessions recordings were made from both M1 and S1 arrays (192 channels); in most sessions M1 recordings were made alone (96 channels).

Data from two primate subjects are included: 37 sessions from monkey 1 ("Indy", spanning about 10 months) and 10 sessions from monkey 2 ("Loco", spanning about 1 month), for a total of ~ 20,000 reaches and 6,500 reaches from monkeys 1 and 2, respectively.

Possible uses. These data are ideal for training BCI decoders, in particular because they are not segmented into trials. We expect that the dataset will be valuable for researchers who wish to design improved models of sensorimotor cortical spiking or provide an equal footing for comparing different BCI decoders. Other uses could include analyses of the statistics of arm kinematics, spike noise-correlations or signal-correlations, or for exploring the stability or variability of extracellular recording over sessions.

Variable names. Each file contains data in the following format. In the below, n refers to the number of recording channels, u refers to the number of sorted units, and k refers to the number of samples.

 chan_names - n x 1 A cell array of channel identifier strings, e.g. "M1 001".  cursor_pos - k x 2 The position of the cursor in Cartesian coordinates (x, y), mm.  finger_pos - k x 3 or k x 6 The position of the working fingertip in Cartesian coordinates (z, -x, -y), as reported by the hand tracker in cm. Thus the cursor position is an affine transformation of fingertip position using the following matrix: \(\begin{pmatrix} 0 & 0 \\ -10 & 0 \\ 0 & -10 \end{pmatrix}\) Note that for some sessions finger_pos includes the orientation of the sensor as well; the full state is thus: (z, -x, -y, azimuth, elevation, roll).  target_pos - k x 2 The position of the target in Cartesian coordinates (x, y), mm.  t - k x 1 The timestamp corresponding to each sample of the cursor_pos, finger_pos, and target_pos, seconds.  spikes - n x u A cell array of spike event vectors. Each element in the cell array is a vector of spike event timestamps, in seconds. The first unit (u1) is the "unsorted" unit, meaning it contains the threshold crossings which remained after the spikes on that channel were sorted into other units (u2, u3, etc.) For some sessions spikes were sorted into up to 2 units (i.e. u=3); for others, 4 units (u=5).  wf - n x u A cell array of spike event waveform "snippets". Each element in the cell array is a matrix of spike event waveforms. Each waveform corresponds to a timestamp in "spikes". Waveform samples are in microvolts.

Videos. For some sessions, we recorded screencasts of the stimulus presentation display using a dedicated hardware video grabber. These screencasts are thus a faithful representation of the stimuli and feedback presented to the monkey and are available for the following sessions:
