transformIntensity-methods: Transforms intensities of an AbstractMassObject object.

In MALDIquant: Quantitative Analysis of Mass Spectrometry Data

Transforms intensities of an AbstractMassObject object.

Description

This method performs a transformation (e.g. sqrt-transformation) on the intensities of an AbstractMassObject object.

Usage

## S4 method for signature 'AbstractMassObject'
transformIntensity(object,
  method=c("sqrt", "log", "log2", "log10"))
## S4 method for signature 'list'
transformIntensity(object, ...)

Arguments

object	AbstractMassObject object or a list of AbstractMassObject objects.
method	used transformation method.
...	arguments to be passed to underlying functions. If object is a list mc.cores is also supported.

Examples

## load package
library("MALDIquant")

## load example data
data("fiedler2009subset", package="MALDIquant")

## choose only the first mass spectrum
s <- fiedler2009subset[[1]]

## transform spectrum
t <- transformIntensity(s, method="sqrt")

## plot spectrum
par(mfrow=c(2, 1))
plot(s, main="raw spectrum")
plot(t, main="transformed spectrum")
par(mfrow=c(1, 1))
