Detailed Description

Class to compute the noise value at a given position.

This class implements a method to obtain the noise value at any given m/z position. For a median based noise estimator, the noise at position m/z is given by the median intensity in a window around this position. This noise estimator has median estimates for a set of precomputed windows and retrieves the appropriate noise value from the closest window. To lower errors at the bin borders, two noise binning values are provided (for a set of windows offset by 1/2 of the window width) and the reported value is the average of these two values.
