Different results for the same metabolite #158

Open shitianhuo opened 3 weeks ago

hello I am analyzing the same metabolite using sirius 5.8.7 and 6.0.0 respectively, but it gives two different results, while sirius 5.8.7 gives the correct result, why is that? image image thanks

I found that when choosing the parameter De novo + bottom up, it gives incorrect results, so which parameter should I choose for a large number of analyses?

Hi, can you provide the spectrum for this compound?

In general, the bottom-up method (from Buddy, Xing et al. 2023) should work like a "extended database" search and is some kind of "sweet spot" between "just searching in a database" (and missing some annotations) and running fully de-novo (which takes MUCH more time).

If you want to use CSI:FingerID afterwards to get structure annotation, you might just use database search instead of bottom-up and de-novo.

De novo formula annotation is more important if you really want to annotate unknown unknowns which are not contained in any databases.

Nevertheless, I would like to find out why SIRIUS 5.8 annotation is better here. So if you can share the spectrum I will take a look.
