Multiple selections in a data profile

You can create different data selections in the same Data profile. Each sequence of boxes must end in a separate Result box. When you analyze the data using that Data profile, the results (statistics, track plots, or heatmaps) are displayed for each selection separately.

tip With large data sets, you may have a large number of possible data selections. Create multiple Data profiles, each specifying one of those selection criteria, and then run batch calculations for each combination between Data profiles and Analysis profiles.

example Tracks have been recorded for a number of animals at Day after treatment 1 and 2. Day after treatment is an independent variable. You want to calculate statistics for the two groups separately, but also with all tracks pooled together.

Connect each Filter sequence to a separate Result box. To add a Result box, click the button next to Result in the Components pane.

The first Result box receives the data after filtering with the independent variable Day after treatment = 1. The second Result box receives the data after filtering with Day after treatment =2. The third Result box receives all data. The statistics are calculated separately for each criterion.

tip click the Settings button in a Result box to change its name, Enter a name associated with the selection (for example, “Day 1”). You will see this name in the results table.

In the analysis results, you can see which output is produced by which Result box. Look up the Result header.
