Detailed Description

Method for the assembly of mass traces belonging to the same isotope pattern, i.e., that are compatible in retention times, mass-to-charge ratios, and isotope abundances.

In FeatureFindingMetabo, mass traces detected by the MassTraceDetection method and afterwards split into individual chromatographic peaks by the ElutionPeakDetection method are assembled to composite features if they are compatible with respect to RTs, m/z ratios, and isotopic intensities. To this end, feature hypotheses are formulated exhaustively based on the set of mass traces detected within a local RT and m/z region. These feature hypotheses are scored by their similarity to real metabolite isotope patterns. The score is derived from independent models for retention time shifts and m/z differences between isotopic mass traces. Hypotheses with correct or false isotopic abundances are distinguished by a SVM model. Mass traces that could not be assembled or low-intensity metabolites with only a monoisotopic mass trace to observe are left in the resulting FeatureMap as singletons with the undefined charge state of 0.

Member Function Documentation

◆ computeAveragineSimScore_()

double computeAveragineSimScore_	(	const std::vector< double > &	intensities,
		const double &	molecular_weight
	)		const

private

Perform intensity scoring using the averagine model (for peptides only)

Compare the isotopic intensity distribution with the theoretical one expected for peptides, using the averagine model. Compute the cosine similarity between the two values.

◆ computeCosineSim_()

double computeCosineSim_	(	const std::vector< double > &	,
		const std::vector< double > &
	)		const

private

Computes the cosine similarity between two vectors.

The cosine similarity (or cosine distance) is the cosine of the angle between two vectors or the normalized dot product of two vectors.

◆ elementsFromString_()

std::vector<const Element*> elementsFromString_ ( const std::string & elements_string ) const

private

parses a string of element symbols into a vector of Elements

Parameters

elements_string string of element symbols without whitespaces or commas. e.g. CHNOPSCl

Returns: vector of Elements

◆ findLocalFeatures_()

void findLocalFeatures_	(	const std::vector< const MassTrace * > &	candidates,
		double	total_intensity,
		std::vector< FeatureHypothesis > &	output_hypotheses
	)		const

private

Identify groupings of mass traces based on a set of reasonable candidates.

Takes a set of reasonable candidates for mass trace grouping and checks all combinations of charge and isotopic positions on the candidates. It is assumed that candidates[0] is the monoisotopic trace.

The resulting possible groupings are appended to output_hypotheses.

◆ getTheoreticIsotopicMassWindow_()

Range getTheoreticIsotopicMassWindow_	(	const std::vector< Element const * >	alphabet,
		int	peakOffset
	)		const

private

Calculate the maximal and minimal mass defects of isotopes for a given set of elements.

Parameters

alphabet	chemical alphabet (elements which are expected to be present)
peakOffset	integer distance between isotope peak and monoisotopic peak (minimum: 1)

Returns: an interval which should contain the isotopic peak. This interval is relative to the monoisotopic peak.

◆ isLegalIsotopePattern_()

int isLegalIsotopePattern_ ( const FeatureHypothesis & feat_hypo ) const

private

Compare intensities of feature hypothesis with model.

Use a pre-trained SVM model to evaluate the intensity distribution of a given feature hypothesis. The model is trained on the monoisotopic and the first tree isotopic traces of each feature and uses the scaled ratios between the traces as input.

Reference: Kenar et al., doi: 10.1074/mcp.M113.031278

Parameters

feat_hypo A feature hypotheses containing mass traces

Returns: 0 for 'no'; 1 for 'yes'; -1 if only a single mass trace exists

◆ loadIsotopeModel_()

void loadIsotopeModel_ ( const String & )

private

◆ run()

void run	(	std::vector< MassTrace > &	input_mtraces,
		FeatureMap &	output_featmap,
		std::vector< std::vector< OpenMS::MSChromatogram > > &	output_chromatograms
	)

main method of FeatureFindingMetabo

◆ scoreMZ_()

double scoreMZ_	(	const MassTrace &	,
		const MassTrace &	,
		Size	isotopic_position,
		Size	charge,
		Range	isotope_window
	)		const

private

Perform mass to charge scoring of two multiple mass traces.

Scores two mass traces based on the m/z and the hypothesis that one trace is an isotopic trace of the other one. The isotopic position (which trace it is) and the charge for the hypothesis are given as additional parameters. The scoring is described in Kenar et al., and is based on a random sample of 115 000 compounds drawn from a comprehensive set of 24 million putative sum formulas, of which the isotopic distribution was accurately calculated. Thus, a theoretical mu and sigma are calculated as:

mu = 1.000857 * j + 0.001091 u sigma = 0.0016633 j * 0.0004751

where j is the isotopic peak considered. A similarity score based on agreement with the model is then computed.

Reference: Kenar et al., doi: 10.1074/mcp.M113.031278

An alternative scoring was added which test if isotope m/z distances lie in an expected m/z window. This window is computed from a given set of elements.

◆ scoreMZByExpectedMean_()

double scoreMZByExpectedMean_	(	Size	iso_pos,
		Size	charge,
		const double	diff_mz,
		double	mt_variances
	)		const

private

score isotope m/z distance based on the expected m/z distances using C13-C12 or Kenar method

Parameters

iso_pos
charge
diff_mz
mt_variances

Returns

◆ scoreMZByExpectedRange_()

double scoreMZByExpectedRange_	(	Size	charge,
		const double	diff_mz,
		double	mt_variances,
		Range	isotope_window
	)		const

private

score isotope m/z distance based on an expected isotope window which was calculated from a set of expected elements

Parameters

charge
diff_mz
mt_variances	m/z variance between the two mass traces which are compared
isotope_window

Returns

◆ scoreRT_()

double scoreRT_	(	const MassTrace &	,
		const MassTrace &
	)		const

private

Perform retention time scoring of two multiple mass traces.

Computes the similarity of the two peak shapes using cosine similarity (see computeCosineSim_) if som::include <OpenMS/KERNEL/MSExperiment.h> e conditions are fulfilled. Mainly the overlap between the two peaks at FHWM needs to exceed a certain threshold. The threshold is set at 0.7 (i.e. 70 % overlap) as also described in Kenar et al.

Note: this only works for equally sampled mass traces, e.g. they need to come from the same map (not for SRM measurements for example).

◆ updateMembers_()

void updateMembers_ ( )

overrideprotectedvirtual

This method is used to update extra member variables at the end of the setParameters() method.

Also call it at the end of the derived classes' copy constructor and assignment operator.

The default implementation is empty.

Reimplemented from DefaultParamHandler.
