<p>Once a project has been initialized at a directory, you may then load the project with the following syntax:</p>

<p>A <a class="reference internal" href="../datasets_and_val/#datasets-and-validation"><span class="std std-ref">dataset source</span></a> is a collection of slides, Regions of Interest (ROI) annotations (if available), and extracted tiles. Sources are defined in the project dataset configuration file, which can be shared and used across multiple projects or saved locally within a project directory. These configuration files have the following format:</p>
<div class="highlight-bash notranslate"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><span class="o">{</span>
<span class="w"> </span><span class="s2">&quot;SOURCE&quot;</span>:
<span class="w"> </span><span class="o">{</span>
<span class="w"> </span><span class="s2">&quot;slides&quot;</span>:<span class="w"> </span><span class="s2">&quot;/directory&quot;</span>,
<span class="w"> </span><span class="s2">&quot;roi&quot;</span>:<span class="w"> </span><span class="s2">&quot;/directory&quot;</span>,

<p>When a project is created with <a class="reference internal" href="../slideflow/#slideflow.create_project" title="slideflow.create_project"><code class="xref py py-func docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">slideflow.create_project()</span></code></a>, a dataset source is automatically created. You can change where slides and extracted tiles are stored by editing the project’s dataset configuration file.</p>
<p>It is possible for a project to have multiple dataset sources - for example, you may choose to organize data from multiple institutions into separate sources. You can add a new dataset source to a project with <code class="xref py py-meth docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">Project.add_source()</span></code>, which will update the project dataset configuration file accordingly.</p>

<section id="annotations">
<h2>Annotations<a class="headerlink" href="#annotations" title="Permalink to this heading"></a></h2>
<p>Your annotations file is used to label patients and slides with clinical data and/or other outcome variables that will be used for training. Each line in the annotations file should correspond to a unique slide. Patients may have more than one slide.</p>
<p>The annotations file may contain any number of columns, but it must contain the following headers at minimum:</p>
<ul class="simple">
<li><p><strong>patient</strong>: patient identifier</p></li>
<li><p><strong>slide</strong>: slide name / identifier (without the file extension)</p></li>
</ul>
<p>An example annotations file is given below:</p>
<table class="docutils align-default">
<tbody>
<tr class="row-odd"><td><p><em>patient</em></p></td>
<td><p><em>category</em></p></td>
<td><p><em>dataset</em></p></td>
<td><p><em>slide</em></p></td>
</tr>
<tr class="row-even"><td><p>TCGA-EL-A23A</p></td>
<td><p>EGFR-mutant</p></td>
<td><p>train</p></td>
<td><p>TCGA-EL-A3CO-01Z-00-DX1-7BF5F</p></td>
</tr>
<tr class="row-odd"><td><p>TCGA-EL-A35B</p></td>
<td><p>EGFR-mutant</p></td>
<td><p>eval</p></td>
<td><p>TCGA-EL-A35B-01Z-00-DX1-89FCD</p></td>
</tr>
<tr class="row-even"><td><p>TCGA-EL-A26X</p></td>
<td><p>non-mutant</p></td>
<td><p>train</p></td>
<td><p>TCGA-EL-A26X-01Z-00-DX1-4HA2C</p></td>
</tr>
<tr class="row-odd"><td><p>TCGA-EL-B83L</p></td>
<td><p>non-mutant</p></td>
<td><p>eval</p></td>
<td><p>TCGA-EL-B83L-01Z-00-DX1-6BC5L</p></td>
</tr>

</table>
<p>An example annotations file is generated each time a new project is initialized. To manually generate an empty annotations file that contains all detected slides, use the bundled <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">Project</span></code> function:</p>
<div class="highlight-python notranslate"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><span class="n">P</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">create_blank_annotations</span><span class="p">()</span>
</pre></div>
</div>
<p>The <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">slide</span></code> column may not need to be explicitly set in the annotations file by the user. Rather, once a dataset has been set up, slideflow will search through the linked slide directories and attempt to match slides to entries in the annotations file using <strong>patient</strong>. Entries that are blank in the <strong>slide</strong> column will be auto-populated with any detected and matching slides, if available.</p>
