Multiple reviews in the same project

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Hi, just starting to use asreview. I read in the asreview-insights documentation that in order to plot different simulations, we need to have two files, one for each simulation/model, such as :

with open_state("tests/asreview_files/sim_van_de_schoot_2017_1.asreview") as s1:
    with open_state("tests/asreview_files/"
                    "sim_van_de_schoot_2017_logistic.asreview") as s2:
        plot_recall(ax,
                    [s1, s2],
                    legend_values=["Naive Bayes", "Logistic"],
                    legend_kwargs={'loc': 'lower center'})

Describe the solution you'd like
I do wonder if it is possible to contain multiple simulations on the same ASReviewProject object, and then of course save it to disk.

Sorry if this has been covered elsewhere. Thanks for the library, it looks great 👍

Are you perhaps looking for the functionality available in https://github.com/asreview/asreview-makita??

@PeterLombaers what do you think? I think technically, everything is in place to make this work. The only thing that is lacking is a proper integration in the Project API. Shall we work on this for version 2?

[PeterLombaers]

Yeah, that would be a nice step. Then you could also reuse feature matrices in case you use the same feature extraction method for multiple simulations. We can have a look!

Hi !
Thanks for your answers and interest in the topic.
I am looking at asreview-makita but I believe it is more oriented towards the use of the CLI, whereas we want to use the API. Having a single file for a single review with all the experiments/matrices inside seemed more practical to us.

We will use the multiple files method for now though, in order to keep in line with the library API :)
