Class Summary |
BioAssay |
An abstract class which represents both physical and computational
groupings of arrays and biomaterials. |
BioAssay_package |
Provides classes that contain information and annotation on the event
of joining an Array with a BioMaterial preparation, the acquisition of
images and the extraction of data on a per feature basis from those
images. |
BioAssayCreation |
The process by which an array and one or more biomaterials are
combined to create a bioAssayCreation. |
BioAssayTreatment |
The event which records the process by which PhysicalBioAssays are
processed (typically washing, blocking, etc...). |
Channel |
A channel represents an independent acquisition scheme for the
ImageAcquisition event, typically a wavelength. |
DerivedBioAssay |
A BioAssay that is created by the Transformation BioEvent from one or
more MeasuredBioAssays or DerivedBioAssays. |
FeatureExtraction |
The process by which data is extracted from an image producing a
measuredBioAssayData and a measuredBioAssay. |
Hybridization |
The archetypal bioAssayCreation event, whereby biomaterials are
hybridized to an array. |
Image |
An image is created by an imageAcquisition event, typically by
scanning the hybridized array (the PhysicalBioAssay). |
ImageAcquisition |
The process by which an image is generated (typically scanning). |
MeasuredBioAssay |
A measured bioAssay is the direct processing of information in a
physical bioAssay by the featureExtraction event. |
PhysicalBioAssay |
A bioAssay created by the bioAssayCreation event (e.g. |
