What's New in Formula

Capsule matching by property

Many functions that work with multiple conditions use time to match up capsules across the two conditions. For example, join() creates capsules that span each capsule in a “start” condition with the next capsule in the “end” condition.

Previously, only a select set of functions that work with multiple conditions take in an optional matchProperty - encloses(), join() inside(), and touches(). Now the remainder of the functions have been updated: fragment(), intersect(), merge(), subtract() and union().

All of these functions now take an optional matchProperty parameter. When specified, only capsules that have the same value of that property will be matched. This capability is very useful for analysis of batches, when a given condition has lots of intermingled capsules that are discriminated by a batch ID.

Principal Components from Regression Model

The regressionModelPCA() function can now directly access the computed Principle Components via the get() function. See function documentation for more details.
