Group resolved across experiments#

This page is generated from the code and must not be edited by hand.

A set of words someone approves groups every experiment holding all of them, each still its own; every set asked is one some experiments share exactly, never a date or a number.

group_resolved_across_experiments version 2+d1

  • Kind of rule: Which files go together (groups). Says which things count as the same in some respect, and so forms groups.

  • What it concludes: equivalent, in respect of resolved_group_across_experiments

  • Reasoning: defeasible. A conclusion is usually right, and is retracted when a rule it names concludes against it.

  • What it reads: files, which it sorts into groups

Is it available in this version?#

Yes. The engine runs it.

What would defeat it#

What this rule concludes about something is withdrawn when any of these rules concludes about the same thing:

  • filesystem_noise_from_spelling: Files a computer makes on its own, such as .DS_Store or Thumbs.db, are recognized by how their names are spelled and set aside; an office program’s lock file, whose name starts ~$, is left alone, because it means somebody was at work.

  • placeholder_from_entry_kind: A shortcut, or a file that claims a size but takes up no room on the disk, is taken to stand in for contents kept somewhere else.

  • installed_software_in_folder: A folder is recognized as an installed program, such as a copy of Fiji or a Python environment, from the parts it holds, a name ending .app, its program-style subfolders or a majority of program files; its files are still indexed and read, and rules about experiments leave them alone.

It stands aside beneath every folder one of these rules raises:

Parameters#

What it does

derivations

"lattice"

one of lattice, each_deviation

How approvals spread: the lattice asks the most general shared sets first and each addition once what it adds to is approved; each deviation asks every word an experiment adds to or lacks from an approved core.

minimum_experiments

5

whole number, from 2 to 1000

The fewest experiments a most general shared set is held by for the lattice to ask it; additions to an approved set are asked whatever their number.

maximum_concepts

5000

whole number, from 1 to 1000000

The most shared sets of words the lattice keeps; where reached, the Groupings page says so rather than cutting silently.

proposal_rule

"experiments_may_belong_together"

text

The rule whose experiments the cores are resolved over.

term_source

"folder_and_acquisitions"

one of folder_and_acquisitions, folder_and_files, folder_name

Where an experiment’s terms are read: its folder’s name and its acquisitions’ names (what an instrument wrote), every file’s name, or its folder’s name alone.

acquisition_rules

["acquisition_stage_from_format"]

list of text

The rules whose files are an experiment’s acquisitions.

minimum_word_characters

2

whole number, from 1 to 50

The shortest word that is a term (WT is one).

ignored_theme_kinds

["stage", "replicate", "connective"]

list of text

A word matched to a sense of these kinds is not a term.

minimum_core_terms

2

whole number, from 1 to 50

The fewest terms a shared core keeps.
