Detailed Description

Method for the assembly of mass traces belonging to the same isotope pattern, i.e., that are compatible in retention times, mass-to-charge ratios, and isotope abundances.

In FeatureFindingMetabo, mass traces detected by the MassTraceDetection method and afterwards split into individual chromatographic peaks by the ElutionPeakDetection method are assembled to composite features if they are compatible with respect to RTs, m/z ratios, and isotopic intensities. To this end, feature hypotheses are formulated exhaustively based on the set of mass traces detected within a local RT and m/z region. These feature hypotheses are scored by their similarity to real metabolite isotope patterns. The score is derived from independent models for retention time shifts and m/z differences between isotopic mass traces. Hypotheses with correct or false isotopic abundances are distinguished by a SVM model. Mass traces that could not be assembled or low-intensity metabolites with only a monoisotopic mass trace to observe are left in the resulting FeatureMap as singletons with the undefined charge state of 0.

Default destructor.

Member Function Documentation

◆ computeAveragineSimScore_()

double computeAveragineSimScore_ ( const std::vector< double > &  intensities,
const double &  molecular_weight 
) const
private

Perform intensity scoring using the averagine model (for peptides only)

Compare the isotopic intensity distribution with the theoretical one expected for peptides, using the averagine model. Compute the cosine similarity between the two values.

◆ computeCosineSim_()

double computeCosineSim_ ( const std::vector< double > &  ,
const std::vector< double > &   
) const
private

Computes the cosine similarity between two vectors.

The cosine similarity (or cosine distance) is the cosine of the angle between two vectors or the normalized dot product of two vectors.

See also https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cosine_similarity

◆ elementsFromString_()

std::vector<const Element*> elementsFromString_ ( const std::string &  elements_string) const
private

parses a string of element symbols into a vector of Elements

Parameters
elements_stringstring of element symbols without whitespaces or commas. e.g. CHNOPSCl
Returns
vector of Elements

◆ findLocalFeatures_()

void findLocalFeatures_ ( const std::vector< const MassTrace * > &  candidates,
double  total_intensity,
std::vector< FeatureHypothesis > &  output_hypotheses 
) const
private

Identify groupings of mass traces based on a set of reasonable candidates.

Takes a set of reasonable candidates for mass trace grouping and checks all combinations of charge and isotopic positions on the candidates. It is assumed that candidates[0] is the monoisotopic trace.

The resulting possible groupings are appended to output_hypotheses.

◆ getTheoreticIsotopicMassWindow_()

Range getTheoreticIsotopicMassWindow_ ( const std::vector< Element const * >  alphabet,
int  peakOffset 
) const
private

Calculate the maximal and minimal mass defects of isotopes for a given set of elements.

Parameters
alphabetchemical alphabet (elements which are expected to be present)
peakOffsetinteger distance between isotope peak and monoisotopic peak (minimum: 1)
Returns
an interval which should contain the isotopic peak. This interval is relative to the monoisotopic peak.

◆ isLegalIsotopePattern_()

int isLegalIsotopePattern_ ( const FeatureHypothesis feat_hypo) const
private

Compare intensities of feature hypothesis with model.

Use a pre-trained SVM model to evaluate the intensity distribution of a given feature hypothesis. The model is trained on the monoisotopic and the first tree isotopic traces of each feature and uses the scaled ratios between the traces as input.

Reference: Kenar et al., doi: 10.1074/mcp.M113.031278

Parameters
feat_hypoA feature hypotheses containing mass traces
Returns
0 for 'no'; 1 for 'yes'; -1 if only a single mass trace exists

◆ loadIsotopeModel_()

void loadIsotopeModel_ ( const String )
private

◆ run()

void run ( std::vector< MassTrace > &  input_mtraces,
FeatureMap output_featmap,
std::vector< std::vector< OpenMS::MSChromatogram > > &  output_chromatograms 
)

main method of FeatureFindingMetabo

◆ scoreMZ_()

double scoreMZ_ ( const MassTrace ,
const MassTrace ,
Size  isotopic_position,
Size  charge,
Range  isotope_window 
) const
private

Perform mass to charge scoring of two multiple mass traces.

Scores two mass traces based on the m/z and the hypothesis that one trace is an isotopic trace of the other one. The isotopic position (which trace it is) and the charge for the hypothesis are given as additional parameters. The scoring is described in Kenar et al., and is based on a random sample of 115 000 compounds drawn from a comprehensive set of 24 million putative sum formulas, of which the isotopic distribution was accurately calculated. Thus, a theoretical mu and sigma are calculated as:

mu = 1.000857 * j + 0.001091 u sigma = 0.0016633 j * 0.0004751

where j is the isotopic peak considered. A similarity score based on agreement with the model is then computed.

Reference: Kenar et al., doi: 10.1074/mcp.M113.031278

An alternative scoring was added which test if isotope m/z distances lie in an expected m/z window. This window is computed from a given set of elements.

◆ scoreMZByExpectedMean_()

double scoreMZByExpectedMean_ ( Size  iso_pos,
Size  charge,
const double  diff_mz,
double  mt_variances 
) const
private

score isotope m/z distance based on the expected m/z distances using C13-C12 or Kenar method

Parameters
iso_pos
charge
diff_mz
mt_variances
Returns

◆ scoreMZByExpectedRange_()

double scoreMZByExpectedRange_ ( Size  charge,
const double  diff_mz,
double  mt_variances,
Range  isotope_window 
) const
private

score isotope m/z distance based on an expected isotope window which was calculated from a set of expected elements

Parameters
charge
diff_mz
mt_variancesm/z variance between the two mass traces which are compared
isotope_window
Returns

◆ scoreRT_()

double scoreRT_ ( const MassTrace ,
const MassTrace  
) const
private

Perform retention time scoring of two multiple mass traces.

Computes the similarity of the two peak shapes using cosine similarity (see computeCosineSim_) if some conditions are fulfilled. Mainly the overlap between the two peaks at FHWM needs to exceed a certain threshold. The threshold is set at 0.7 (i.e. 70 % overlap) as also described in Kenar et al.

Note
this only works for equally sampled mass traces, e.g. they need to come from the same map (not for SRM measurements for example).

◆ updateMembers_()

void updateMembers_ ( )
overrideprotectedvirtual

This method is used to update extra member variables at the end of the setParameters() method.

Also call it at the end of the derived classes' copy constructor and assignment operator.

The default implementation is empty.

Reimplemented from DefaultParamHandler.
