Figshare article 13008038 is a 19.6 GB split ZIP archive plus a smaller code ZIP. The first analysis-backed adapter inspects the code ZIP and uses a targeted HTTP range extraction of OptogeneticInactivation/Inactivation_HigherPower.mat from split archive part .001, avoiding a full neural-heavy archive download for the MVP.
Dataset
Zatka-Haas mouse visual decision Figshare dataset

Expected trial-table mapping
Canonical fields the harmonizer expects this dataset to populate.
| Canonical field | Source mapping |
|---|---|
| choice | Wheel-derived left, right, or no-go/miss outcome. |
| correct | Source reward or outcome label mapped to correctness. |
| evidence_strength | Absolute contrast or source-specific bilateral contrast tuple. |
| feedback | Reward, error, or no-reward outcome. |
| response_time | Wheel movement onset or response time relative to stimulus onset. |
| session_id | Session identifier from source behavioral files. |
| stimulus_side | Side with visual evidence, or none/no-go where applicable. |
| stimulus_value | Signed visual contrast or contrast difference. |
| subject_id | Mouse identifier from behavioral or analysis metadata. |
| task_variables | left contrast, right contrast, wheel movement, open-loop delay, go cue, inactivation condition, neural recording modality, and model-fit condition. |
| trial_index | Trial number within session. |
Caveats
- Current generated report covers the higher-power optogenetic inactivation table and pools laser/non-laser trials for the first choice surface.
- Widefield, Neuropixels, and model-fit joins remain deferred; laser-region stratified behavior summaries should come before neural joins.
