Each block contained\n16 trials (2 s stimulation per trial).\n\nEEG was recorded at 1000 Hz with a Synamps2 system (Neuroscan) and 64\nchannels. Each epoch spans 3000 samples (3 s at 1000 Hz).\n\n.. note::\n\nChannel selection is critical for this dataset. Using all 64 channels\nwith CCA-based methods yields near-chance accuracy because the high\nchannel-to-sample ratio causes overfitting. The paper uses 9 occipital\nchannels (PO7, PO3, POz, PO4, PO8, O1, Oz, O2, and one additional)\nand achieves >90% with TRCA. Users should pick occipital channels\nbefore classification.\n\nAdditionally, the cross-session evaluation (training on alert session\n'0', testing on fatigued session '1') is a challenging domain-shift\nproblem that standard CCA/TRCA may not handle well without\nfatigue-aware strategies.\n\nData is stored as [16, 64, 3000, N_blocks] matrices (targets, channels,\ntimepoints, blocks) in per-subject zip files on Zenodo. Each subject has\n4 separate files: low_frequency_train, low_frequency_fatigue,\nhigh_frequency_train, high_frequency_fatigue.\n\nIn MOABB, this is mapped as:\n- Session '0': Training blocks (6 blocks per condition, 12 total)\n- Session '1': Fatigue blocks (24 blocks per condition, 48 total)\n\nReferences\n----------\n..
