Usage of demo dataset #1746

Closed mattinjersey closed 2 months ago

mattinjersey commented 2 months ago

Hello I know that I have read that the mimic data shall not be released. Instead we could release data from the demo dataset, specifically citing the demo dataset, and explaining the policy.

Anyways could you point me to where this policy is.

Thanks Matt
