===== Definition ===== | ===== Definition ===== | ||
- | The purpose is to search for similar [[proteingroups#protein groups]], i.e. protein groups: | + | Context is a central notion in hEIDI. Basically, it contains identification results, i.e. a set of proteins identified by a set of peptides.\\ |
- | * having the same set of proteins | + | There are two types of contexts in hEIDI: |
- | * identified by a same set of peptides | + | * Search context: each identification result from Mascot, or from any other identification engine, is automatically "encapsulated" into one Search context. |
+ | * User context: it is created by the user in order to gather together several identification results into a User context. In order to have non-redundant sets of proteins for a given context, proteins need to be grouped to build "Protein Groups". | ||
- | The Dice coefficient is used to measure similarity (result ranges from 0 to 1). | + | ===== Context tree view ===== |
+ | ==== User Context ==== | ||
+ | {{:usercontextshierarchy.png |}} | ||
+ | A User context is represented by {{:usercontext.png|}}.\\ | ||
+ | A User context contains either child contexts or identifications but can't have both at the same level.\\ | ||
- | {{:diceCoef.png?102x50}} | + | There are multiple reasons for grouping several identifcations under the same User context: |
+ | * Same biological origin | ||
+ | * Same gel | ||
+ | * Same culture condition | ||
+ | * Same chromatographic column | ||

- | {{:contextComparison.png?260 }} | ||
- | It compares every protein groups of the first context with every protein groups of the second context.\\ | ||
- | Comparing two protein groups each other means: | ||
- | * Checking the similarity of their protein sets (FIXME sameset and subset) | ||
- | * Checking the similarity of their peptide sets | ||
- | * Checking if "master" proteins are identical | ||
- | ==== Compare N contexts ==== | ||
- | This comparison is similar to the previous one: similarity measure and FIXME "best alignment"\\ | ||
- | Each context is compared with a "unique reference". First of all, this reference is built from the identification union, i.e. the parent context. | ||

- | ===== GUI: Compare contexts each other ===== | ||
- | {{:compareeachother.png |Compare contexts each other}} | ||
- | - Select the two contexts (for which protein grouping has been executed) you want to compare each other | ||
- | - Right-click and select "Algorithms->Compare with->Each Other" | ||
- | - The comparison window display the result | ||
- | - You can save results as a .xls, .pdf or .html file using the "Export" button | ||
- | |||

- | ===== GUI: Compare context with its children ===== | ||
- | |||
- | {{:comparewithchildren.png |Compare a context with its children}} | ||
- | - Select the context of your choice (first, protein grouping needs to be run for this context and its childs) | ||
- | - Right-click and select “Algorithms→Compare with→Children” | ||
- | - The comparison window display the result | ||
- | - Select the characteristic you want to compare | ||
