Context filters (creating and reusing)

If you want to focus on articles around a specific topic you have in mind, here the context filter will be of best use. The usefulness of context filters comes when you need more than one word to describe your desired outcome. For example, filtering for “dog training” will give you one result, but adding a description of animal behavior together with e.g. “dog” as a key term will give you an additional notch to turn to find the content that is not using your vocabulary. Once you have created the filter, you will receive information about each paper in the dataset and their corresponding relevance compared to the context filter. You can adjust the range according to your preference - the higher the ranger, the more similar the papers will be to the context filter. (video)

Tip: A lower relevance range might serve you as a “negative” context filter - if you know a particular context that the papers should not revolve around.

All context filters that you create will be available to use in any of the datasets in your content. This eliminates the need to create the same context filter over and over again. Also if you would like to play with different context filters but don’t want to lose information on them, use the switcher next to each filter to disable them temporarily.

Choose the dataset you want to filter and click on the “Filter” tool on the right side panel. Then scroll down to find “Context filters”. If you used a context filter before you can find your saved filters when you click on the “select filter”. To create a new context filter click on “New filter”. Then give your filter a name and write the description. The context filter is especially useful when you want to focus on articles around a specific topic that is difficult to explain in one keyword. When you’re done writing a description click “Done”. Once you have created the filter, you can adjust the range according to your preference - the higher the ranger, the more similar the papers will be to the context filter. Remember to click “Apply”. You can sort your dataset by the context filter so the most relevant articles will be on the top of the list. And there you go! That’s how you filter with the context filter.
