Abstract

Exemplary embodiments provide methods, mediums, and systems for analyzing spectrometry and/or chromatography data, and in particular to techniques to improve the reproducibility of results of spectrographic and/or chromatographic experiments. For example, some embodiments provide techniques for normalizing mass spectrometry (MS) and/or liquid chromatography (LC) data across different experimental devices, allowing data from different cohorts to be directly compared. To this end, exemplary embodiments provide a reliable, reproducible target library usable across different platforms, laboratories, and users. One embodiment leverages statistical techniques to select experimental parameters configured to reduce or minimize the chance of misidentifying a target molecule. Another embodiment leverages the law of large numbers to produce a composite product ion spectrum usable across different experiments. The composite product ion spectrum allows regression curves to be generated, where the regression curves can be used to normalize an experimental mass spectrum.
