Class FeatureEvidenceComparator

java.lang.Object

psidev.psi.mi.jami.utils.comparator.feature.FeatureEvidenceComparator

All Implemented Interfaces:

Comparator<FeatureEvidence>

Direct Known Subclasses:

UnambiguousFeatureEvidenceComparator

public class FeatureEvidenceComparator
extends Object
implements Comparator<FeatureEvidence>

Basic FeatureEvidence comparator. It will first compare feature detection methods using AbstractCvTermComparator. If both feature detection methods are the same, it will use a AbstractFeatureBaseComparator to compare basic properties of a feature. This comparator will ignore all the other properties of an experimental feature.

Constructor Detail

FeatureEvidenceComparator

public FeatureEvidenceComparator(Comparator<Feature> featureComparator,
                                 Comparator<CvTerm> cvTermComparator)

Creates a new FeatureEvidenceComparator.

Parameters:

featureComparator - : feature comparator required for comparing basic feature properties

cvTermComparator - a Comparator object.

FeatureEvidenceComparator

public FeatureEvidenceComparator(Comparator<Feature> featureComparator,
                                 CollectionComparator<CvTerm> cvTermComparator)

Constructor for FeatureEvidenceComparator.

Parameters:

featureComparator - a Comparator object.

cvTermComparator - a CollectionComparator object.

Method Detail

getFeatureComparator

public Comparator<Feature> getFeatureComparator()

Getter for the field featureComparator.

Returns:

a Comparator object.

getCvTermCollectionComparators

public CollectionComparator<CvTerm> getCvTermCollectionComparators()

Getter for the field cvTermCollectionComparators.

Returns:

a CollectionComparator object.

compare

public int compare(FeatureEvidence experimentalFeature1,
                   FeatureEvidence experimentalFeature2)

It will first use a AbstractFeatureBaseComparator to compare basic properties of a feature. If the basic feature properties are the same, it will then compare feature detection methods using AbstractCvTermComparator. This comparator will ignore all the other properties of an experimental feature.

Specified by:

compare in interface Comparator<FeatureEvidence>

Parameters:

experimentalFeature1 - a FeatureEvidence object.

experimentalFeature2 - a FeatureEvidence object.

Returns:

a int.
