Method Details

createBioAssayToSourceBioAssayMap

public static Map<BioAssay,BioAssay> createBioAssayToSourceBioAssayMap(BioAssaySet sourceAssaySet,
 Collection<BioAssay> bas)

Create a mapping between assays and their source assays from a given BioAssaySet.

If an assay has more than one corresponding source assay or no source assay at all, it is ignored and logged as a warning.

createCharacteristicMap

public static Map<Category,Map<BioAssay,Collection<Characteristic>>> createCharacteristicMap(Collection<BioAssay> assays)

Create a mapping of biomaterial to characteristics for each category.

Unlike BioMaterials, assays do not hold a collection of characteristics and instead have a few fields that are converted to characteristics.
