Clarification needed on "GC-EI spectral deconvolution" #1909
Comments
In fact, we have the same question for GC aligner. Is it ADAP-based or HCA-based? |
Hi, |
Thank you for the information. I'd like to know more about the type of deconvolution algorithm used in the new modules "GC-EI spectral deconvolution" and GC "aligner", including specific details about the algorithm and any references to literature or related work. Additionally, it would be beneficial to receive some feedback on the configuration parameters available, such as the default or fixed parameters. This information would greatly help in understanding and utilizing the module more effectively not as a black box. Thank you! |
Congratulations on the module update! It looks fantastic. I have still a couple of questions about the GC-MS workflow:
Thank you! |
Hi, The module will be designed to use different algorithms that the user can select. Literature sources (if available) will be added to the documentation. Thanks for sharing your opinion on Wehrens' metaMS and Domingo-Almenara's eRah. I will have a look. Currently intensity and area are derived from the most abundant grouped feature, indicated by the peak area in the preview. The idea is now to add an extra module that can be run optionally to also create a deconvoluted feature. What do you think about this approach? |
This sounds great! I believe this is the best approach. If I understand correctly, this deconvoluted feature will have an area or intensity proportional to the concentration of the feature somehow. Do you have any idea how are you going to implement the computation of this signal? Regarding the current approach based on the most intense mz, I think it can be problematic when this mz is a low-mass peak prone to saturation or more irreproducible. The regression approaches seems like a better method. However, there might be more advanced approaches available now. We would be happy to collaborate on this. We're using data beyond metabolomics, such as fuel analysis, and I believe mzmine could be very powerful in these GC-MS applications as well. |
Hi again, Documentation can be found here: Looking for more helpful input, especially on determining a good model feature. |
Really nice! I will look into it. What about the last reference of GC-ADAP? https://pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/acs.analchem.9b01424 |
Not the same, but similar logic. ADAP will also come back at some point. |
Basic information
What happened
I am currently working with the GC-MS workflow in mzmine and have a doubt regarding the type of deconvolution implemented in the module "GC-EI spectral deconvolution".
I have searched through the documentation but couldn't find detailed information on the algorithm used. Could you please clarify whether the deconvolution in this module is based on hierarchical clustering, MCR (Multivariate Curve Resolution), or another method?
Your assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you!
