01 / ABOUT THE ATLAS

An open foundation
for BCI research.

ParadigmMarkerConstructRegionelicitsindexesgenerates
Every connection links back to evidence.

One atlas. From experimental protocols to neural evidence.

Explore how tasks, signals, brain regions and cognition connect. Open data, maintained by SavorCode.

02 / DATA MODEL

How the atlas connects

Four connected parts. One traceable graph.

01

Classes & protocols

Compare tasks, cues, timing and feedback across experimental protocols.

02

Neural markers

Identify signals, recording methods and time-frequency features.

03

Regions & constructs

Connect signals to the brain regions and cognitive processes they reflect.

04

Sources & interoperability

Trace original papers and connect to BIDS, HED and Cognitive Atlas.

03 / EXPLORE THE ATLAS

Find your next protocol.

Search 404 protocols, or start with an example.

Oddball: detecting rare targets

Detect rare targets among frequent stimuli and observe the target-related P3b response.

PROTOCOL

Two stimulus types · Target detection or counting · Random presentation.

NEURAL KNOWLEDGE

05 / EVIDENCE & STATUS

Know the evidence.

Evidence strength and review status are different.

A

Synthesis & replication

Meta-analysis, systematic review, or replication across labs and modalities.

B

Independent studies

Supported by multiple independent studies.

C

Single or indirect evidence

A single study or indirect support.

D

Theoretical proposal

A proposed link, not yet directly tested.

v0.1.0 / DRAFT

Open data. Work in progress.

draftrevieweddeprecated

All active paradigms remain drafts. No sources are content-verified and no concrete paradigms are reviewed yet.

Review details & current limits

682 source entries entered this release's bibliographic checking workflow; the release report lists 47 outstanding rows. 0 content-verified sources. 0 reviewed concrete paradigms. Descriptions, protocols and source attribution still need verification against the original papers.

A stronger evidence grade does not mean a record has completed review. A record becomes reviewed only after its sources are content-verified and a maintainer other than its contributor approves it.
