In sneumann/xcms: LC-MS and GC-MS Data Analysis

Find start and end points of a peak

Description

Decends down the sides of a data peak and finds either the points greater than or equal to the zero intercept, the intercept with a given value, or the bottom of the first valley on each side.

Usage

descendZero(y, istart = which.max(y))
descendValue(y, value, istart = which.max(y))
descendMin(y, istart = which.max(y))

Arguments

y	numeric vector with values
istart	starting point for descent
value	numeric value to descend to

Value

An integer vector of length 2 with the starting and ending indicies of the peak start and end points.
