See \code{medianRILib}. } \item{r_thres}{ A correlation threshold.} \item{columns}{ A numeric vector with the positions of the columns \code{SPECTRUM}, \code{RETENTION_TIME_INDEX}, and \code{RETENTION_TIME} or a character vector with the header names of those columns.} \item{method}{ Normalisation method. Options are \code{"dayNorm"}, a day based median normalisation, \code{"medianNorm"}, normalisation using the median of all the intensities of a given mass, and \code{"none"}, no normalisation at all. } \item{minPairObs}{ Minimum number of pair observations. Correlations between two variables are computed using all complete pairs of observations in those variables. If the number of observations is too small, you may get high correlations values just by chance, so this parameters is used to avoid that. Cannot be set lower than 5. } \item{showProgressBar}{Logical. Should the progress bar be displayed?} \item{makeReport}{ Logical. If \code{TRUE} will report the RI deviations for every metabolite in the library. } \item{pdfFile}{ The file name where the report will be saved. } } \value{ A matrix of correlating selective masses RI. Columns represent samples and rows the median RI of the selective masses. } \examples{ require(TargetSearchData) data(TargetSearchData) # get RI file path RI.path <- file.path(.find.package("TargetSearchData"), "gc-ms-data") # update RI file path RIpath(sampleDescription) <- RI.path # Import Library refLibrary <- ImportLibrary(file.path(RI.path,'library.txt')) # get the sample RI corRI <- sampleRI(sampleDescription, refLibrary, r_thres = 0.95) # same as above, but changing the correlation threshold and the minimum number # of observations corRI <- sampleRI(sampleDescription, refLibrary, r_thres = 0.9, minPairObs = 10) } \author{Alvaro Cuadros-Inostroza, Matthew Hannah, Henning Redestig} \seealso{ \code{\link{ImportSamples}}, \code{\link{ImportLibrary}}, \code{\link{medianRILib}}, \code{\linkS4class{tsLib}}, \code{\linkS4class{tsSample}} }
