Re: [R] Suggestions: Terminology Pkgs for following spectra over time

2008-04-17 Thread baptiste AuguiƩ
Hello,

I've found the function isPeak from the Bioconductor package  
PROCess very useful for peak finding. My data was similar to yours  
(spectroscopy, i'm a physicist) but not time dependent. It may be a  
starting point to work on one spectrum, retrieve a few relevant  
informations (peak positions, widths, intensities,...), and process  
similarly at regular time intervals.

 www.bioconductor.org/packages/2.0/ bioc/vignettes/PROcess/inst/doc/ 
howtoprocess.pdf  

hope this helps,

baptiste

 samples would be followed over time.  The spectra will be feature
 rich/complex, so one can't see the changes by visual inspection.  The
 spectra are basically 2D matrices: peaks as a function of  
 frequencies.  So
 the data set is in the form of spectra of a single sample over  
 time, for
 multiple samples.

 I am wondering about methods  R pkgs that can be used to analyze  
 changes in
 the spectra over time.  For instance, I would like to find specific  
 peaks
 that are changing over time, sets of peaks that are changing in a  
 correlated
 way over time etc.  I'd like to do this in an efficient and  
 statistically
 valid way.  What I am thinking of is somewhat like a time series,  
 somewhat
 like image analysis (but only 2D), but it's not quite either of  
 those and I
 need to know what it's really called to investigate further.

 Any suggestions as to R pkgs and key words/phrases will be  
 appreciated.

 TIA, Bryan

Dear Bryan,

For work in that general direction, look at the R News that was on 'R in
chemistry' (Volume 6/3, August 2006,
http://www.r-project.org/doc/Rnews/Rnews_2006-3.pdf) and the special vol.
of the Journal of Statistical Software on 'Spectroscopy and Chemometrics
in R' (vol 18, http://www.jstatsoft.org/v18)

For ideas about modeling spectra resolved in time and frequency, the
papers of Sabine van Huffel at K U Leuven may be of interest
(http://www.esat.kuleuven.be/~sistawww/cgi-bin/newsearch.pl?Name=Van+Huffel+S)

If you decide that you want to describe the time domain with a parametric
model, then look at the package TIMP (and perhaps contact me off list).
