| - | ====== Context definition ====== | ||
| - | |||
| - | Contexts are a central notion in hEIDI. Basically a context contains an identification result : groups of proteins identified by groups of peptides. This definition can be equally used for identification results issued from a search engine such as Mascot for example as well as identification results build up from many other identifications results compiled together. hEIDI distinguish two types of context : | ||
| - | * a Search context wich is a context associated with the identification result issued from a single search in Mascot (or other search engine). Each time a new search engine result is saved in the database by IRMa, a new search context is created. | ||
| - | * a User context is created by the user in order to organize and aggregate multiple search and/or user contexts. | ||
| - | |||
| - | After having opened an MSI session in your project, you can retreive the User context and Search context hierarchy in the MSIExplorer view. | ||

| - | ===== User context ===== | ||
| - | {{context:userContextsHierarchy.png }} In hEIDI, a User context is represented with {{context:usercontext.png}}.\\ | ||
| - | A User context contains either other User contexts (child contexts) or identification results, but you can't have both under the same context.\\ | ||
| - | |||
| - | The reason for gathering together several identifications under the same context depends on the user's problematic. Here are some examples: | ||
| - | * Same biological origin | ||
| - | * Same gel | ||
| - | * Same culture conditions | ||
| - | * Same column chromatography | ||
