Detailed Description

An LC-MS feature.

The Feature class is used to describe the two-dimensional signal caused by an analyte. It can store a charge state and a list of peptide identifications (for peptides). The area occupied by the Feature in the LC-MS data set is represented by a list of convex hulls (one for each isotopic peak). There is also a convex hull for the entire Feature. The model description can store the parameters of a two-dimensional theoretical model of the underlying signal in LC-MS. Currently, non-peptide compounds are also represented as features.

By convention in OpenMS, the position of a feature is defined as maximum position of the model for the retention time dimension and the mass of the monoisotopic peak for the m/z dimension. The intensity of a feature is (proportional to) its total ion count.

Feature is derived from RichPeak2D. Also inherited is a MetaInfoInterface. Features as usually are contained in a FeatureMap. See also FeatureHandle and ConsensusFeature.
