Detailed Description

A feature grouping algorithm for unlabeled data.

The algorithm takes a number of feature or consensus maps and searches for corresponding (consensus) features across different maps. The maps have to be aligned (i.e. retention time distortions corrected, e.g. using one of the MapAlignmentAlgorithms), but small deviations are tolerated.

This particular algorithm accumulates the features from all input maps, then applies a variant of QT clustering to find groups of corresponding features. For more details, see QTClusterFinder.

Parameters of this class are:

Name	Type	Default	Restrictions	Description
use_identifications	string	false	true, false	Never link features that are annotated with different peptides (only the best hit per peptide identification is taken into account).
nr_partitions	int	100	min: 1	How many partitions in m/z space should be used for the algorithm (more partitions means faster runtime and more memory efficient execution).
min_nr_diffs_per_bin	int	50	min: 5	If IDs are used: How many differences from matching IDs should be used to calculate a linking tolerance for unIDed features in an RT region. RT regions will be extended until that number is reached.
min_IDscore_forTolCalc	float	1.0		If IDs are used: What is the minimum score of an ID to assume a reliable match for tolerance calculation. Check your current score type!
noID_penalty	float	0.0	min: 0.0 max: 1.0	If IDs are used: For the normalized distances, how high should the penalty for missing IDs be? 0 = no bias, 1 = IDs inside the max tolerances always preferred (even if much further away).
ignore_charge	string	false	true, false	false [default]: pairing requires equal charge state (or at least one unknown charge '0'); true: Pairing irrespective of charge state
ignore_adduct	string	true	true, false	true [default]: pairing requires equal adducts (or at least one without adduct annotation); true: Pairing irrespective of adducts
distance_RT:max_difference	float	100.0	min: 0.0	Never pair features with a larger RT distance (in seconds).
distance_RT:exponent	float	1.0	min: 0.0	Normalized RT differences ([0-1], relative to 'max_difference') are raised to this power (using 1 or 2 will be fast, everything else is REALLY slow)
distance_RT:weight	float	1.0	min: 0.0	Final RT distances are weighted by this factor
distance_MZ:max_difference	float	0.3	min: 0.0	Never pair features with larger m/z distance (unit defined by 'unit')
distance_MZ:unit	string	Da	Da, ppm	Unit of the 'max_difference' parameter
distance_MZ:exponent	float	2.0	min: 0.0	Normalized ([0-1], relative to 'max_difference') m/z differences are raised to this power (using 1 or 2 will be fast, everything else is REALLY slow)
distance_MZ:weight	float	1.0	min: 0.0	Final m/z distances are weighted by this factor
distance_intensity:exponent	float	1.0	min: 0.0	Differences in relative intensity ([0-1]) are raised to this power (using 1 or 2 will be fast, everything else is REALLY slow)
distance_intensity:weight	float	0.0	min: 0.0	Final intensity distances are weighted by this factor
distance_intensity:log_transform	string	disabled	enabled, disabled	Log-transform intensities? If disabled, d = \|int_f2 - int_f1\| / int_max. If enabled, d = \|log(int_f2 + 1) - log(int_f1 + 1)\| / log(int_max + 1))
