Differential weight assigned to uploaded spectral libraries #726

Open Progress109 opened 5 months ago

Progress109 commented 5 months ago

Would it be possible to add a feature that allows users to identify the spectral library uploaded that was created in-house (i.e. the one with the highest accuracy) such that matches made using that libraries are given more significance? I think this would allow users to more easily and reliably use multiple libraries (both in-house and community-based) for spectral matching.

@Progress109 Great suggestion! This is definitely possible. Perhaps this could be implemented as each library having its own score scaling factor? The overall score would just be the product of the spectral match score and the library-specific scaling factor. I think this could probably be implemented as an option in the MS/MS configuration options window. Let me know if that sounds good to you, and I will try to add this as a part of the next milestone.

@Progress109 Moving this to a new milestone - feel free to reach out if you are still interested in this feature!
