Peak alignement and normalisation of metabolomic data

Description

Recursive Segment-Wise Peak Alignment (RSPA) for accounting peak position variation across metabolomic data

Usage

align_mQTL(datafile, outdat)

Arguments

Details

The algorithm is based on the following workflow:

1. Quotient probabilistic normalisation of metabolomic data.

2. Automatic selection of a reference spectrum.

3. Segmentate a reference spectrum.

4. Then for each test spectrum:

   • segmentate a test spectrum.

   • match test and reference segments.

   • align a test spectrum.

Value

It returns aligned data.
