Abstract
Brain–computer interface (BCI) technology is the new frontier in the fields of communication, healthcare, anad neuroscience. To develop and assess BCI systems, researchers need high-quality data-capture datasets that include brain signals with their behavioral or cognitive outcomes. This chapter brings into view the importance of open-access datasets in speeding up BCI research. This chapter considers their importance for collaboration, in the benchmarking of algorithms, as well as for accountability in the BCI community. This chapter also describes the difficulties of construction and maintenance of open access BCI datasets emphasizing the use of standardized data formats, ethical guidelines, a system-driven approach, and protocols for sharing data. If the BCI community provides rich, diverse, and readily available datasets, BCI technology will be developed faster, it will stimulate innovations and bring the technologies into practical use more quickly.
