Method for mass spectrometry spectrum deisotoping based on fuzzy inference systems
Nowadays, mass spectrometry is widely used in proteomics for confident and precise identification of the protein. One of the most important steps in the signal analysis is deisotoping because some peaks in the spectrum are not the unique compound, but there are members of an isotopic envelope. Although the mass spectrometry is present in proteomics for a long time already, the problem of isotope peaks identification is not solved yet. The existing algorithms, usually designed for the particular...
