Create new sample mapping strategy for multiomics single cell

[kamyshova]

Issue

Currently, 1:M sample mapping in single cell is solved by creating master (GEX) column for Antibody library type. This strategy creates line duplication and obliges the creation of the main columns manually.

Approach

Create new sample mapping strategy by grouping:

• Create group membership:

  • single mandatory field
  • value: group membership or NA/NULL

• Group processing:

  • split samples into groups
  • duplicate Antibody sample type to create a 1:1 relationship for a group containing more than 1:1 mapping
  • treat sample as singleton if group column is NA or NULL
