Chromatograms
Bioc currentInfrastructure for Chromatographic Mass Spectrometry Data
Release Lineage
Entered 3.22 · Oct 30, 2025
Current · Requires R 4.6
Description
The Chromatograms packages defines an efficient infrastructure for storing and handling of chromatographic mass spectrometry data. It provides different implementations of *backends* to store and represent the data. Such backends can be optimized for small memory footprint or fast data access/processing. A lazy evaluation queue and chunk-wise processing capabilities ensure efficient analysis of also very large data sets.
