Group features using KPIC2

Source: R/generics.R, R/feature_groups-kpic2.R

Uses the the KPIC2 R package for grouping of features.

groupFeaturesKPIC2(feat, ...)

# S4 method for class 'features'
groupFeaturesKPIC2(
  feat,
  rtalign = TRUE,
  loadRawData = TRUE,
  groupArgs = list(tolerance = c(0.005, 12)),
  alignArgs = list(),
  verbose = TRUE
)

# S4 method for class 'featuresSet'
groupFeaturesKPIC2(
  feat,
  groupArgs = list(tolerance = c(0.005, 12)),
  verbose = TRUE
)

Arguments

feat

The features object with the features to be grouped.

...

Further parameters passed to the selected grouping algorithm.

rtalign

Set to TRUE to enable retention time alignment.

loadRawData

Set to TRUE if analyses are available as mzXML or mzML files. Otherwise MS data is not loaded, and some dummy data (e.g. file paths) is used in the returned object.

groupArgs, alignArgs

Named character vector that may contain extra parameters to be used by KPIC::PICset.group and KPIC::PICset.align, respectively.

verbose

if FALSE then no text output will be shown.

Value

An object of a class which is derived from featureGroups.

The featuresSet method (for sets workflows) returns a featureGroupsSet object.

Details

This function uses KPIC2 to group features. This function is called when calling groupFeatures with algorithm="kpic2".

Grouping of features and alignment of their retention times are performed with the KPIC::PICset.group and KPIC::PICset.align functions, respectively.

Sets workflows

loadRawData and arguments related to retention time alignment are currently not supported for sets workflows.
