topN: The topN algorithm for protein quantification

Description

Estimates protein abundances using the N most intense ions.

Usage

topN(X, N = 3, aggregation_in_log_space = TRUE)

Value

A list of two components is returned

estimate

A vector with length equal to the number of columns of the input containing the protein abundances in log2 space.

annotation

Reserved, currently an empty string.

Arguments

X

A matrix of ion intensities in log2 space. Columns are samples and rows are fragment ions.

N

The number of top ions used for quantification.

aggregation_in_log_space

A logical value. If FALSE, data aggregation is performed in the original intensity space.
