Detailed Description

This class implements a simple point pair finding algorithm.

It offers a method to find element pairs across two element maps.

The similarity value should express our confidence that one element might possibly be matched to the other. Larger quality values are better, the maximal similarity is one. Let \(\Delta_\textit{RT}\) and \(\Delta_\textit{MZ}\) be the absolute values of the RT and MZ differences in the data. Then the similarity value is

\[ \frac{1}{ \big( 1 + \Delta_\textit{RT} \cdot \textit{diff\_intercept\_RT} \big)^\textit{diff\_exponent\_RT} \cdot \big( 1 + \Delta_\textit{MZ} \cdot \textit{diff\_intercept\_MZ} \big)^\textit{diff\_exponent\_MZ} } \]

Choosing diff_exponent: This parameter controls the growth rate of the penalty for differences. It is for example possible to search for pairs using the absolute distance in RT (which should not be very susceptible to outliers) and the squared distance in MZ (where small difference occur frequently, but large differences indicate a mismatch).

Choosing diff_intercept: Since we are taking the reciprocal value ("1/..."), we include an offset to avoid division by zero in case \(\Delta=0\). To set this parameter, ask yourself: How much worse is a difference of 1 compared to no difference?

The following image illustrates the influence of these parameters:

Influence of the parameters intercept and exponent

Parameters of this class are:

Name	Type	Default	Description
similarity:pair_min_quality	float	0.01	Minimum required pair quality.
similarity:diff_intercept:RT	float	1.0	This parameter controls the asymptotic decay rate for large differences (for more details see the similarity measurement).
similarity:diff_intercept:MZ	float	0.1	This parameter controls the asymptotic decay rate for large differences (for more details see the similarity measurement).
similarity:diff_exponent:RT	float	2.0	This parameter is important for small differences (for more details see the similarity measurement).
similarity:diff_exponent:MZ	float	1.0	This parameter is important for small differences (for more details see the similarity measurement).
