Janelia Replica IBL Task: Mouse Decision-Making Training Sessions

154.4 MB of processed data from a replica of the International Brain Laboratory's decision-making task. The dataset, authored by Josh Dudman and last updated in May 2026, contains session-based training data for mice, including raw video and audio files. Data is structured in MATLAB files for ease of use, with separate folders for habituation and regular training sessions.

Use Cases

• Analyzing wheel movement patterns during decision-making tasks based on the task-related information mentioned.
• Studying behavioral adaptation across training sessions based on the session numbering and type (habituation vs. training).
• Correlating audio cue deliveries with behavioral responses based on the described inclusion of audio data.
• Developing models of learning progression based on the sequence of sessions for individual mice.

Strengths

• Data is structured for ease of use in MATLAB, a common platform in neuroscience.
• Includes multimodal raw data such as video and audio files, as described.
• Session organization is clear, with folders named by mouse ID, session type, and number.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment for large-scale analysis.
• The full dataset with large raw files is not included; it must be requested separately.
