If you use the same 15 pooled samples for the subset-based alignment in the first and second (including only blank samples) you should get the same number of peak groups. The subset alignment does the peak group alignment only on the subset samples (i.e. it identified peak groups on them and aligns the subset samples based on them). Then in a second step it aligns all non-subset samples to the aligned subset samples. Thus I don't understand why you see differences there. Could you maybe check again and maybe also paste the code you use for the two alignments here?
I totally agreed that it should have the same number of peak groups used for the subsequent alignment so I was confused. I will try to see if something happens in the code and will come back to you. Thanks!
Dear XCMS community:
I got the following errors when doing retention time alignment based on peak group alignment on "subset" <- pooled samples (15 pooled samples), but it looks like there are very few peak groups:
But before this, I have tested RT alignment on the exact same pooled samples together with blank (using pooled samples as a subset and align blank against them, just like #335 ). And I got around only 46 peak groups. But no warnings.
Questions
Aligning sample number X against subset
? Is that because I have so many samples against subset so it doesn't print out or maybe can it suggest issue with my parameters?Thanks always for your help!
