find_peaks: Find peaks

In cihanerkut/unicoRn: Analyze and visualize chromatography data from UNICORN software

Description

Find local maxima in a chromatogram

Usage

find_peaks(chr_data, maximum_peaks = 1)

Arguments

chr_data	Chromatogram data imported by read_unicorn or read_res
maximum_peaks	Maximum number of peaks to find.

Details

This function searches for local maxima along the curves of chromatograms. Because the search can yield even slightest spikes as peaks, the hits are sorted in a descending order based on the UV absorbance the the top maximum_peaks (default 1) are reported.

The algorithm is modified from the findPeaks function in quantmod package.

Examples

## Not run: 
peaks <- find_peaks(chr_data, 5)

## End(Not run)
