The exports/ Folder

AutoCleanEEG provides a task‑root convenience folder named exports/. This folder is meant as a convenience export: it gathers the most useful processed outputs in one place, so users can quickly start analysis without digging through derivatives or raw-like structures. 
<task>/
  exports/
    ├── 101001_C1D1BL_EO_comp_epo.set         # Final EEG‑only dataset (EEGLAB)
    ├── 101001_C1D1BL_EO_processing_log.csv   # Per‑file processing CSV (convenience copy)
    └── 101001_C1D1BL_EO_processing.log       # Per‑file pipeline log (convenience copy)
Notes:
  • .set files are rewritten to include EEG channels only.
  • Per‑file CSV/log are convenience copies; originals live under reports/run_reports/ and logs/.

​
Why it exists

  • Convenience: Many users just want the “final” artifact-cleaned, epoched dataset without extra navigation.
  • Reproducibility: Logs are included alongside the cleaned files for transparency.
  • Compatibility: Outputs are still linked to the BIDS dataset, but collected in one easy-to-access folder.
This folder is a convenience location and not part of the BIDS standard. BIDS‑compliant inputs/outputs remain under bids/ and bids/derivatives/ respectively.
