Contains

AQPython.Query.Contains(left, right, limit=0, negate=False)

Provide the ability to find annotations that contain another annotation.

The input is 2 Dataframes of AQAnnotations. We will call them A and B. The purpose is to find those annotations in A that contain B. What that means is the start/end offset for an annotation from A must contain the start/end offset from an annotation in B. The start/end offsets are inclusive. We ultimately return the container annotations (A) that meet this criteria. We also deduplicate the A annotations as there could be many annotations from B that could be contained by an annotation in A but it only makes sense to return the unique container annotations. There is also the option of negating the query (think Not Contains) so that we return only A where it does not contain B.

Parameters

• left – Dataframe of AQAnnotations, the ones we will return if they contain AQAnnotations from ‘right’.

• right – Dataframe of AQAnnotations, the ones we are looking to see if they occur in the AQAnnotations from ‘left’.

• limit – Number of AQAnnotations to return.

• negate – Whether to negate the entire query (think NOT contains). Default is false.

Returns

Dataframe of AQAnnotations
