Imagined Speech EEG database — Spanish vowels and commands (Pressel et al. 2016)

Overview

An open-access EEG dataset comprising recordings from 15 healthy Spanish-speaking subjects during imagined speech tasks. The dataset includes 11 imagery classes: 5 Spanish vowels and 6 directional commands, acquired using 6-channel EEG at 1024 Hz with preprocessed data (bandpass filtered 2-45 Hz). Trials consist of 4-second periods with a 3-second imagery window occurring within each trial. This resource supports brain-computer interface research and motor imagery classification studies.

Data Collection Methods

EEG signals were recorded from 15 healthy subjects (age 24-28 years) using a Grass 8-18-36 amplifier with DataTranslation DT9816 ADC. Six channels (F3, F4, C3, C4, P3, P4) were positioned according to the standard 10-20 montage. Sampling rate was 1024 Hz with online bandpass filtering (2-45 Hz). Subjects performed cue-based imagery tasks of 5 Spanish vowels and 6 directional commands in response to visual stimuli, with trial duration of 4 seconds and imagery period of 3 seconds. Data were preprocessed with bandpass filtering and artifact rejection applied.
