Export raw files in BIDS format
Author: Martin Cousineau
It is now possible to export your raw files in the Brain Imaging Data Structure (BIDS) format.
Note: For the time being, only MEG data files in CTF format can be exported in the BIDS format.
How to use
- First, select the raw files you would like to export and drag them in the process box.
- Click on [Run] to open the pipeline editor window.
Select the process "File -> Export MEG-BIDS dataset".
Process options
Output folder: En empty folder where a BIDS folder organization will be created by the process, or an existing BIDS-formatted folder where new recordings will be appended.
Subject names: The naming convention to use for subjects (sub-XXXX)
Custom names: The Brainstorm subject names will be kept, with non-alphanumeric characters removed. For example, if your subject name in brainstorm is Subject01, the BIDS-formatted name for this subject will be sub-Subject01.
Number index: An auto-incremented 4 digit index number will be automatically assigned to each subject based on their alphabetical order. For example, Subject01 will be sub-0001. If the output folder specificed above is an existing BIDS-formatted folder, numbering will start from the last subject ID.
Session names: The naming convention to use for sessions (ses-XXXX)
Acquisition date: The acquisition date extracted from the raw file metadata, or the date the data was imported in Brainstorm if that fails, will be used for session names (e.g. ses-20181023). This is the default behavior for the emptyroom subject regardless of the value of this option.
- Number index: An auto-incremented 4 digit index number will be automatically assigned to each session of a subject, ordered by their acquisition date. For example, if Subject01 has two sessions recorded at 10AM and 2PM the same day, the 10AM session will be ses-0001 and the 2PM session will be ses-0002. If the output folder specified aboveis an existing BIDS-formatted folder with previous sessions of the same subject already present, the numbering will start from the last session ID.
Keywords to detect empty room recordings: In order to properly assign empty room recordings to the special emptyroom subject, the process will look for these comma-separated keywords in the condition name (raw folder). If you would like not to have an emptyroom subject, leave this blank.
Overwrite existing files: If the output folder provided above is an existing BIDS-formatted folder, this option specifies whether to overwrite existing raw files or not. If not checked, the process will skip existing files.
