Description

Objective, quantifiable EEG biomarkers for schizophrenia (SZ) research are limited by the scarcity of large, diverse, and high-quality public datasets. To address this gap, we present ASEEG (Atieh Schizophrenia EEG), a resting-state EEG dataset designed to support methodological development and benchmarking in SZ studies. ASEEG comprises 198 recordings from 101 subjects, including 51 individuals diagnosed with SZ according to DSM-5 criteria and 50 demographically matched healthy controls. Data were collected at a clinical setting using a standardized 19-channel EEG montage (international 10–20 system) with a sampling rate of 500 Hz. For each subject, both eyes-open and eyes-closed resting-state conditions were recorded for five minutes each, enabling analysis of complementary neural dynamics. The dataset spans a wide age range (15–65 years) and provides balanced diagnostic groups and extended recording durations. ASEEG is intended for use in feature extraction, machine and deep learning model development, validation, and comparative evaluation of EEG-based approaches for SZ research.

Files

Embargoed

The files will be made publicly available on March 15, 2027.

Reason: This dataset contains unpublished EEG recordings from schizophrenia patients and matched healthy control subjects. An embargo is applied to allow the research team sufficient time to complete ongoing analyses, finalize the project, and publish the associated scientific papers. Public release after the embargo period will ensure data integrity, proper interpretation, and appropriate citation of the original work.
