  • Constructor Details

    • ArrayDesign

      public ArrayDesign()
      No-arg constructor added to satisfy javabean contract

  • Method Details

    • getId

      @DocumentId public Long getId()
      Specified by:
      getId in interface Identifiable
      Specified by:
      getId in interface gemma.gsec.model.Securable
      Overrides:
      getId in class AbstractIdentifiable

    • getName

      @Field public String getName()
      Description copied from interface: Describable
      Obtain a short, human-readable name of the object.
      Specified by:
      getName in interface Describable
      Overrides:
      getName in class AbstractDescribable

    • getDescription

      @Field(store=YES) public String getDescription()
      Description copied from interface: Describable
      Obtain a human-readable description of the object.
      Specified by:
      getDescription in interface Describable
      Overrides:
      getDescription in class AbstractDescribable

    • getAdvertisedNumberOfDesignElements

      public Integer getAdvertisedNumberOfDesignElements()
      Returns:
      The number of design elements, according to the manufactuerer or determined at the time the array design was entered into the system. The actual number of design elements can only be determined by looking at the associated Set of DesignElements.

    • getAlternateNames

      @IndexedEmbedded public Set<AlternateName> getAlternateNames()

    • getAlternativeTo

      public ArrayDesign getAlternativeTo()
      Returns:
      true if this is an Affymetrix platform that has a related "canonical" platform we use instead.

    • getCompositeSequences

      public Set<CompositeSequence> getCompositeSequences()

    • getCurationDetails

      public CurationDetails getCurationDetails()
      Specified by:
      getCurationDetails in interface Curatable

    • getDesignProvider

      public Contact getDesignProvider()

    • getExternalReferences

      @IndexedEmbedded public Set<DatabaseEntry> getExternalReferences()
      Returns:
      Accessions for this array design in other databases, e.g., GEO, ArrayExpression.

    • getMergedInto

      public ArrayDesign getMergedInto()

    • getMergees

      public Set<ArrayDesign> getMergees()

    • getPrimaryTaxon

      public Taxon getPrimaryTaxon()
      Returns:
      The taxon the array design is for. This could be a non-specific taxon ("salmonid"). It may not match the sequences on the array exactly. For example, a mouse array might have some non-mouse sequences as controls, but the primary taxon is still mouse.

    • getShortName

      @Field(analyze=NO) public String getShortName()
      Returns:
      A brief unique (but optional) human-readable name for the expression experiment. For example in the past we often used names like "HG-U95A".

    • getSubsumedArrayDesigns

      public Set<ArrayDesign> getSubsumedArrayDesigns()
      Returns:
      Array designs that this array design "covers". For example, the HG-U133_Plus_2 array includes all the elements that are on the HG-U133A and HG-U133B, so they are subsumed by the HG-U133_Plus_2.

    • getSubsumingArrayDesign

      public ArrayDesign getSubsumingArrayDesign()
      Returns:
      An array design that subsumes this one (contains DesignElements that are equivalent to the ones on this arraydesign).

    • getTechnologyType

      public TechnologyType getTechnologyType()

    • setAdvertisedNumberOfDesignElements

      public void setAdvertisedNumberOfDesignElements(Integer advertisedNumberOfDesignElements)

    • setAlternateNames

      public void setAlternateNames(Set<AlternateName> alternateNames)

    • setAlternativeTo

      public void setAlternativeTo(ArrayDesign alternativeTo)

    • setCompositeSequences

      public void setCompositeSequences(Set<CompositeSequence> compositeSequences)

    • setCurationDetails

      public void setCurationDetails(CurationDetails curationDetails)
      Specified by:
      setCurationDetails in interface Curatable

    • setDesignProvider

      public void setDesignProvider(Contact designProvider)

    • setExternalReferences

      public void setPrimaryTaxon(Taxon primaryTaxon)

    • setShortName

      public void setShortName(String shortName)

    • setSubsumedArrayDesigns

    • hashCode

      public int hashCode()
      Description copied from class: AbstractIdentifiable

      hashCode in class AbstractDescribable

    • equals

      public boolean equals(Object object)
      Description copied from class: AbstractIdentifiable
