Description

Peak Detection in Mass Spectrometry data is one of the important preprocessing steps. The performance of peak detection affects subsequent processes, including protein identification, profile alignment and biomarker identification. Using Continuous Wavelet Transform (CWT), this package provides a reliable algorithm for peak detection that does not require any type of smoothing or previous baseline correction method, providing more consistent results for different spectra. See <doi:10.1093/bioinformatics/btl355} for further details.

Changes in 1.78.2 (Bioconductor 3.23)
  • tuneInPeakInfo(): Fix three crashes found while adding unit tests for this function:
  • A peak whose local refinement window contains no ridges (e.g. a quiet/flat neighborhood) crashed with Error in strsplit(ridgeName.i, "_") : non-character argument (the same bug class fixed earlier in identifyMajorPeaks()). That peak is now left unprocessed instead.
  • Calling tuneInPeakInfo() via the direct peakIndex/peakScale arguments (instead of majorPeakInfo) could crash with attempt to set an attribute on NULL if any peak ended up unprocessed. NA is now used as a placeholder when there is no original value to fall back on.
Show all changes in 1.78.2Hide the rest of the changes in 1.78.2
  • peakDetectionCWT(tuneIn = TRUE) on a flat/constant signal (whose majorPeakInfo$peakIndex is empty) crashed with missing value where TRUE/FALSE needed, since for (i in 1:length(x)) iterates twice when x has length 0. Fixed to return a well-formed empty result instead.
