Quantitative Analysis of Mass Spectrometry Data

Description

MALDIquant provides a complete analysis pipeline for matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization-time-of-flight (MALDI-TOF) and other two-dimensional mass spectrometry data.

In addition to commonly used plotting and processing methods it includes distinctive features, namely baseline subtraction methods such as morphological filters (TopHat) or the statistics-sensitive non-linear iterative peak-clipping algorithm (SNIP), peak alignment using warping functions, handling of replicated measurements as well as allowing spectra with different resolutions.

Install

You can install the latest release directly from CRAN.

install.packages("MALDIquant")

Install development version (not recommended)

GitHub is not directly supported by the basic install.packages command. You could use the devtools package to install the development version of MALDIquant (you will need a complete development environment to compile the some c code).

install.packages("devtools")
library("devtools")
install_github("sgibb/MALDIquant")

Examples

To illustrate the application of MALDIquant for analyses of mass spectrometry data please find a number of example R scripts in the MALDIquantExamples repository.
