<h2>What is <em>StudyForrest</em>?</h2>
|
|
<p>The <strong>human brain</strong> processes vast amounts of diverse
|
|
input that are continuously gathered across the senses. However, most
|
|
experiments study the brain via simplified stimuli that do little to
|
|
resemble the complexity of a <strong>natural environment</strong>
|
|
— a mismatch that must be addressed if we are to better
|
|
understand how the brain works.</p>
|
|
<p>This project centers around the use of <strong>the movie Forrest
|
|
Gump</strong>, which provides complex sensory input that is both
|
|
reproducible and is also richly laden with real-life-like content and
|
|
contexts.</p>
|
|
<p>Since its initial release, the <em>StudyForrest</em> dataset has grown
|
|
and been extended substantially, and now encompasses many <strong>hours
|
|
of fMRI scans</strong>, structural brain scans, <strong>eye-tracking</strong>
|
|
data, and extensive <strong>annotations</strong> of the movie. Explore
|
|
the <a href="/data.html">Data Page</a> to more closely examine the data
|
|
we have available.</p>

<h3>Neuroscience Researchers</h3>
|
|
<p>This is a <strong>one-of-a-kind resource</strong> for studying
|
|
high-level cognition in the human brain under complex, natural
|
|
stimulation. Furthermore, the versatility of the provided data (some
|
|
individuals have nearly ten hours of fMRI data) enables studies far
|
|
beyond this main focus. This covers a vast range from studies of
|
|
low-level signal properties and brain structure, to sensory
|
|
integration and attentional processes, to computational modeling of
|
|
representational spaces and brain area interactions. Take a look the
|
|
<a href="/publications.html">List of Publications</a> to get
|
|
inspired.</p>

<h3>Scientific Developers</h3>
|
|
<p>The <em>StudyForrest</em> project provides <strong>ideal reference
|
|
datasets</strong> for brain imaging. It's a comprehensive, modular,
|
|
multi-modal, real-world dataset — making it an optimal choice
|
|
when benchmarking algorithms or comparing implementations across
|
|
projects.</p>
|
|
<p>Liberally licensed (<a href="https://opendatacommons.org/licenses/pddl/1-0/">PDDL</a>)
|
|
and hosted across many <a href="/access.html">different services</a>
|
|
(OpenNeuro, GIN, etc) with fine-grained access options, the
|
|
<em>StudyForrest</em> dataset is easily accessible and is ready to be
|
|
integrated into your CI infrastructure.</p>

<h3>Everyone — and You</h3>
|
|
<p>Not keen on brain research? This project still has something to offer
|
|
to you! Our effort to analyze the <strong>structure of the movie
|
|
<em>Forrest Gump</em></strong> and annotate its properties greatly
|
|
expands the breadth of topics that can be explored. Check out the
|
|
<a href="/data.html">Data Page</a> for more specifics.</p>
|
|
<p>What we're most interested in is applications and inquiries that we
|
|
have not anticipated — both within the field of neuroscience
|
|
and beyond. So please, invent applications and <strong>explore ideas
|
|
you have</strong> that we aren't even aware of... and do tell us
|
|
about them!</p>

<h2>How are People Using It?</h2>
|
|
<p>The <em>StudyForrest</em> dataset has been used in over two dozen
|
|
<a href="publications.html">studies</a> to investigate particular
|
|
research questions or to validate novel tools and algorithms.</p>

charged movie and continuous ratings of the perceived emotion

intensity to reveal the topographic organization of affective states.
