Job: Particle Sets Tool

Split a particle group into subsets or compare two groups.

Description

Split a particle group into subsets or compare two groups.

Inputs

  • particles_A: Particles
    • With only this group
      AA
      specified, choose the split action to split the data into multiple batches
  • particles_B: Particles (optional)
    • With both groups
      AA
      and
      BB
      , choose the intersect action to compute set operations on the two groups, including (i) intersection
      ABA ∩ B
      and differences (ii)
      ABA - B
      and (iii)
      BAB - A
      .

Common Parameters

  • Action
    • With only one particle input group, choose split to split the data into multiple batches
    • With both particle input groups, choose intersect to compute the set intersection and difference between the two groups.
    • if intersect is selected, a new parameter is available: Field to Intersect
      • uid: use the uid field to intersect the two inputs
      • path : use a common path field to intersect the two inputs (e.g., location/micrograph_path)
  • Split num. batches: With the split action, how many batches to split the particles into
  • Split batch size: With the split action, how many particles to add to each batch
  • Split randomize: With the split action, randomize the particles to add to each batch

Outputs

  • split_X (multiple outputs): With the split action, batches of the resulting particles
  • remainder: With the split action, particles left out of split_X batches due to the specified batch size and number of batches
  • intersect: With the intersect action, result of
    ABA ∩ B
    • Note: all of the result groups in common from set A and B (e.g. blob, ctf, alignments3D, etc.) and passthrough groups will be pulled from set A in the intersect output
  • A_minus_B: With the intersect action, set difference
    ABA - B
  • B_minus_A: With the intersect action, set difference
    BAB - A
Example outputs when only one input particle set is provided compared to two sets.
