COMBINE Archive Basics

Tellurium offers the ability to embed entire COMBINE archives within notebook cells. These inline OMEX cells are represented in a human-readable format that can be easily edited by hand.

This notebook shows some basic examples of COMBINE archives and how to use them in Tellurium. You can export any of these examples by clicking on the diskette icon in the upper right part of the cell.

OMEX cells

About

In Tellurium, a special type of IPython cell exists for Combine archives (a.k.a. the Open Modeling EXchange format, OMEX). It is denoted by a small Combine archive icon next to the execution counter in the upper left corner of the cell.

Creating

A Combine archive cell may be created by importing from a Combine archive on disk. Move the mouse past the last cell in a notebook to show the cell creator bar. Click on the "Import" button, and choose "Import Combine archive...". Alternatively, simply click "New" -> "Combine archive" to create an empty Combine archive cell.

Example 1: Basic demo

The example shows a minimal Combine archive containing an SBML model (myModel) representing conversion of species S1 to S2, a single timecourse simulation, and a plot.

// -- Begin Antimony block

Example 2: Dual Simulations

This example plots a deterministic simulation and a stochastic simulation of the same system.

simulation2 = simulate uniform_stochastic(0, 5, 100)
// Tasks

task2 = run simulation2 on model1
// Outputs
plot "Deterministic Solution" task1.time vs task1.A, task1.B
plot "Stochastic Solution" task2.time vs task2.A, task2.B

Example 3: Stochastic Ensemble

This example uses a repeated task to run multiple copies of a stochastic simulation, then plots the ensemble.

  J0: A -> B; k*A;

// Simulations

// Tasks

repeat1 = repeat task1 for \
  local.x in uniform(0,25,25), reset=True
// Outputs
plot "Stochastic Ensemble" repeat1.time vs repeat1.A, repeat1.B

Example 4: Phase portrait

In addition to timecourse plots, SED-ML can also be used to create phase portraits. This is useful to show the presenence (or absence, in this case) of limit cycles. Here, we use the well-known Lorenz attractor to show this feature.

Example 5: Parameter scanning

Through the use of repeated tasks, SED-ML can be used to scan through parameter values. This example shows how to scan through a set of predefined values for a kinetic parameter (J1_KK2).
