Input a Dataset

  • Input Dataset provided by user, by uploading a data file having a valid format. To the allowed format, see Data Types.

IDDescriptionsComment
1 Session IDIt becomes a persistent session only after having saved it. You need to log in for that.
2 Description of your sessionYou can fill this information during the backup step.. You need to log in for that.
3 Number of experimental factorsWarning: Must be coherent with data within the file
4 Two shapes are allowed: Samples in rows or Samples in columns, depending on how samples are organized within the file. - Samples in rows means that there is a sample at each row, and its features in columns
- Samples in columns means that there is a sample at each column, and its features in rows
5 - The data file should be uploaded with a semi-column as separator (.csv) file.
- Both sample or feature names must be unique.
- The factor rows (columns) must follow immediately after the samples rows (columns).
- Data values should contain only numeric values (using empty or NA for missing values)
See screenshots below as examples
6 - Optional: the association file allows all variables or only some of them to be associated with others kind of features (e.g. annotations, clusters). Several variables may have the same association. The file must have two columns with header: one for the variables (must be exactly the same names that those contained in the data file), another for the association name. An association file can be very useful if variables have names as complicated as metabolites for example, with special characters. So, put variables with a corresponding identifier within the data matrix, and thus, metabolite names will be only viewed on graphs. We might as well call this file, the metadata file.
7 - Submit data files
