About SETLyze¶
The purpose of SETLyze is to provide the people involved with the SETL project an easy and fast way of getting useful information from the data stored in the SETL database. The SETL database at GiMaRIS contains data about the settlement of species in Dutch waters. SETLyze helps provide more insight in a set of biological questions by analyzing this data. SETLyze can perform the following set of analyses:
- Spot Preference
- Determine a species’ preference for a specific location on a SETL plate. Species can be combined so that they are treated as a single species.
- Attraction within Species
- Determine if a species attracts or repels individuals of its own kind. Species can be combined so that they are treated as a single species.
- Attraction between Species
- Determine if two different species attract or repel each other. Species can be combined so that they are treated as a single species.
Additionally, any of the above analyses can be performed in batch mode, meaning that the analysis is repeated for each species of a species selection. Thus an analysis can be easily performed on an entire data set without intervention. Batch mode for analyses are parallelized such that the computing power of a computer is optimally used.
