Description |
Competitive | This is the most common type of cell type. The cell type
will "compete" with other competitive cell types for
events. Any given event can only belong to one of the competitive
cell types.
Use this for most cases. |
Selective | This special cell type can be used as the first
cell type in a model template, and there should be no more than
one of them. The selective cell type selects events that will
then be considered by the competitive cell types. It acts
much like an initial gate to select cells of interest.
This is not a commonly used type. |
Non-competitive | A non-competitive cell type is typically the last
cell type in a model template. It is designed to capture
all of the events that are not assigned to any of the competitive
cell types.
It is useful for analyzing the unclassified events. |
