FILTER OPTIONS

Note: Filters are applied sequentially in the order that you list them, and the
sequence order
can make a large difference in your output.  In particular, the peakPicking
filter must be first
in line if you wish to use the vendor-supplied centroiding algorithms since
these use the vendor
DLLs, which only operate on raw untransformed data.

Many filters take 'int_set' arguments.  An 'int_set' is a list of intervals of
the form [a,b] or a[-][b].
For example '[0,3]' and '0-3' both mean 'the set of integers from 0 to 3
inclusive'.
'1-' means 'the set of integers from 1 to the largest allowable number'.  
'9' is also an integer set, equivalent to '[9,9]'.
'[0,2] 5-7' is the set '0 1 2 5 6 7'. 
index <index_value_set>
Selects spectra by index - an index value 0-based numerical order in which the
spectrum appears in the input.
  <index_value_set> is an int_set of indexes.

id <id_set>
Selects one or more spectra by native IDs separated by semicolon (;).
  <id_set> is a semicolon-delimited set of ids.

msLevel <mslevels>
This filter selects only spectra with the indicated <mslevels>, expressed as an
int_set.

chargeState <charge_states>
This filter keeps spectra that match the listed charge state(s), expressed as an
int_set.  Both known/single and possible/multiple charge states are tested.  Use
0 to include spectra with no charge state at all.

precursorRecalculation 
This filter recalculates the precursor m/z and charge for MS2 spectra. It looks
at the prior MS1 scan to better infer the parent mass.  However, it only works
on orbitrap and FT data,although it does not use any 3rd party (vendor DLL)
code.  Since the time the code was written, Thermo has since fixed up its own
estimation in response, so it's less critical than it used to be (though can
still be useful).

mzRefiner input1.pepXML input2.mzid [msLevels=<1->]
[thresholdScore=<CV_Score_Name>] [thresholdValue=<floatset>]
[thresholdStep=<float>] [maxSteps=<count>]
This filter recalculates the m/z and charges, adjusting precursors for MS2
spectra and spectra masses for MS1 spectra. It uses an ident file with a
threshold field and value to calculate the error and will then choose a shifting
mechanism to correct masses throughout the file. It only works on orbitrap, FT,
and TOF data. It is designed to work on mzML files created by msconvert from a
single dataset (single run), and with an identification file created using that
mzML file. It does not use any 3rd party (vendor DLL) code. Recommended Scores
and thresholds: MS-GF:SpecEValue,-1e-10 (<1e-10); MyriMatch:MVH,35- (>35);
xcorr,3- (>3)

lockmassRefiner mz=<real> mzNegIons=<real (mz)> tol=<real (1.0 Daltons)>
For Waters data, adjusts m/z values according to the specified lockmass m/z and
tolerance. Distinct m/z value for negative ions is optional and defaults to the
given mz value. For other data, currently does nothing.

precursorRefine 
This filter recalculates the precursor m/z and charge for MS2 spectra. It looks
at the prior MS1 scan to better infer the parent mass.  It only works on
orbitrap, FT, and TOF data. It does not use any 3rd party (vendor DLL) code.

peakPicking [<PickerType> [snr=<minimum signal-to-noise ratio>]
[peakSpace=<minimum peak spacing>] [msLevel=<ms_levels>]]
This filter performs centroiding on spectrawith the selected <ms_levels>,
expressed as an int_set.  The value for <PickerType> must be "cwt" or "vendor":
when <PickerType> = "vendor", vendor (Windows DLL) code is used if available. 
IMPORTANT NOTE: since this filter operates on the raw data through the vendor
DLLs, IT MUST BE THE FIRST FILTER IN ANY LIST OF FILTERS when "vendor" is used.
The other option for PickerType is "cwt", which uses ProteoWizard's
wavelet-based algorithm for performing peak-picking with a wavelet-space
signal-to-noise ratio of <signal-to-noise ratio>.
Defaults:
 <PickerType> is a low-quality (non-vendor) local maxima algorithm
 <signal-to-noise ratio> = 1.0
 <minimum peak spacing> = 0.1
 <ms_levels> = 1-
 

scanNumber <scan_numbers>
This filter selects spectra by scan number.  Depending on the input data type,
scan number and spectrum index are not always the same thing - scan numbers are
not always contiguous, and are usually 1-based.
<scan_numbers> is an int_set of scan numbers to be kept.

scanEvent <scan_event_set>
This filter selects spectra by scan event.  For example, to include all scan
events except scan event 5, use filter "scanEvent 1-4 6-".  A "scan event" is a
preset scan configuration: a user-defined scan configuration that specifies the
instrumental settings in which a spectrum is acquired. An instrument may cycle
through a list of preset scan configurations to acquire data. This is a more
generic term for the Thermo "scan event", which is defined in the Thermo
Xcalibur glossary as: "a mass spectrometer scan that is defined by choosing the
necessary scan parameter settings. Multiple scan events can be defined for each
segment of time.".

scanTime <scan_time_range>
This filter selects only spectra within a given time range.
  <scan_time_range> is a time range, specified in seconds.  For example, to
select only spectra within the second minute of the run, use "scanTime
[60-119.99]".

sortByScanTime 
This filter reorders spectra, sorting them by ascending scan start time.

stripIT 
This filter rejects ion trap data spectra with MS level 1.

metadataFixer 
This filter is used to add or replace a spectra's TIC/BPI metadata, usually
after peakPicking where the change from profile to centroided data may make the
TIC and BPI values inconsistent with the revised scan data.  The filter
traverses the m/z intensity arrays to find the sum and max. For example, in
msconvert it can be used as: --filter "peakPicking true 1-" --filter
metadataFixer.  It can also be used without peak picking for some strange
results. Certainly adding up all the samples of profile data to get the TIC is
just wrong, but we do it anyway.

titleMaker <format_string>
This filter adds or replaces spectrum titles according to specified
<format_string>. You can use it, for example, to customize the TITLE line in MGF
output in msconvert.  The following keywords are recognized: 
   "<RunId>" - prints the spectrum's Run id - for example, "Data.d" from
"C:/Agilent/Data.d/AcqData/mspeak.bin"
   "<Index>" - prints the spectrum's index
   "<Id>" - prints the spectrum's nativeID
   "<SourcePath>" - prints the path of the spectrum's source data
   "<ScanNumber>" - if the nativeID can be represented as a single number,
prints that number, else index+1
   "<ActivationType>" - for the first precursor, prints the spectrum's
"dissociation method" value
   "<IsolationMz>" - for the first precursor, prints the the spectrum's
"isolation target m/z" value
   "<PrecursorSpectrumId>" - prints the nativeID of the spectrum of the first
precursor
   "<SelectedIonMz>" - prints the m/z value of the first selected ion of the
first precursor
   "<ChargeState>" - prints the charge state for the first selected ion of the
first precursor
   "<SpectrumType>" - prints the spectrum type
   "<ScanStartTimeInSeconds>" - prints the spectrum's first scan's start time,
in seconds
   "<ScanStartTimeInMinutes>" - prints the spectrum's first scan's start time,
in minutes
   "<BasePeakMz>" - prints the spectrum's base peak m/z
   "<BasePeakIntensity>" - prints the spectrum's base peak intensity
   "<TotalIonCurrent>" - prints the spectrum's total ion current
   "<MsLevel>" - prints the spectrum's MS level
For example, to create a TITLE line in msconvert MGF output with the
"name.first_scan.last_scan.charge" style (eg. "mydata.145.145.2"), use
--filter "titleMaker <RunId>.<ScanNumber>.<ScanNumber>.<ChargeState>"

threshold <type> <threshold> <orientation> [<mslevels>]
This filter keeps data whose values meet various threshold criteria.
   <type> must be one of:
      count - keep the n=<threshold> [most|least] intense data points, where n
is an integer.  Any data points with the same intensity as the nth [most|least]
intense data point are removed.
      count-after-ties - like "count", except that any data points with the same
intensity as the nth [most|least] data point are retained.
      absolute - keep data whose absolute intensity is [more|less] than
<threshold>
      bpi-relative - keep data whose intensity is [more|less] than <threshold>
percent of the base peak intensity.  Percentage is expressed as a number between
0 and 1, for example 75 percent is "0.75".
      tic-relative - keep data whose individual intensities are [more|less] than
<threshold> percent of the total ion current for the scan. Again, precentage is
expressed as a number between 0 and 1.
      tic-cutoff - keep the [most|least] intense data points up to <threshold>
percent of the total ion current.  That is, the TIC of the retained points is
<threshold> percent (expressed as a number between 0 and 1) of the original TIC.
   <orientation> must be one of:
      most-intense (keep m/z-intensity pairs above the threshold)
      least-intense (keep m/z-intensity pairs below the threshold)
   <mslevels> is an optional int_set of MS levels - if provided, only scans with
those MS levels will be filtered, and others left untouched.

mzWindow <mzrange>
keeps mz/intensity pairs whose m/z values fall within the specified range.
  <mzrange> is formatted as [mzLow,mzHigh].  For example, in msconvert to retain
data in the m/z range 100.1 to 307.5, use --filter "mzWindow [100.1,307.5]" .

mzPrecursors <precursor_mz_list> [mzTol=<mzTol (10 ppm)>]
[target=<selected|isolated> (selected)] [mode=<include|exclude (include)>]
Filters spectra based on precursor m/z values found in the <precursor_mz_list>,
with <mzTol> m/z tolerance. To retain only spectra with precursor m/z values of
123.4 and 567.8, use --filter "mzPrecursors [123.4,567.8]". Note that this
filter will drop MS1 scans unless you include 0.0 in the list of precursor
values.   <mzTol> is optional and must be specified as a number and units (PPM
or MZ). For example, "5 PPM" or "2.1 MZ".
   <target> is optional and must be either "selected" (the default) or
"isolated". It determines whether the isolated m/z or the selected m/z is used
for the "precursor m/z"
   <mode> is optional and must be either "include" (the default) or "exclude". 
If "exclude" is used, the filter drops spectra that match the various criteria
instead of keeping them.

defaultArrayLength <peak_count_range>
Keeps only spectra with peak counts within <peak_count_range>, expressed as an
int_set. (In mzML the peak list length is expressed as "defaultArrayLength",
hence the name.)  For example, to include only spectra with 100 or more peaks,
you would use filter "defaultArrayLength 100-" .

zeroSamples <mode> [<MS_levels>]
This filter deals with zero values in spectra - either removing them, or adding
them where they are missing.
  <mode> is either removeExtra or addMissing[=<flankingZeroCount>] .
  <MS_levels> is optional, when provided (as an int_set) the filter is applied
only to spectra with those MS levels.
When <mode> is "removeExtra", consecutive zero intensity peaks are removed from
spectra.  For example, a peak list
  "100.1,1000 100.2,0 100.3,0 100.4,0 100.5,0 100.6,1030"
would become 
  "100.1,1000 100.2,0 100.5,0 100.6,1030"
and a peak list 
  "100.1,0 100.2,0 100.3,0 100.4,0 100.5,0 100.6,1030 100.7,0 100.8,1020 100.9,0
101.0,0"
would become 
  "100.5,0 100.6,1030 100.7,0 100.8,1020 100.9,0"
When <mode> is "addMissing", each spectrum's sample rate is automatically
determined (the rate can change but only gradually) and flanking zeros are
inserted around non-zero data points.  The optional [=<flankingZeroCount>] value
can be used to limit the number of flanking zeros, otherwise the spectrum is
completely populated between nonzero points. For example, to make sure spectra
have at least 5 flanking zeros around runs on nonzero points, use filter
"addMissing=5".

mzPresent <mz_list> [mzTol=<tolerance> (0.5 mz)] [type=<type> (count)]
[threshold=<threshold> (10000)] [orientation=<orientation> (most-intense)]
[mode=<include|exclude (include)>]
This filter includes or excludes spectra depending on whether the specified
peaks are present.
   <mz_list> is a list of mz values of the form [mz1,mz2, ... mzn] (for example,
"[100, 300, 405.6]"). Spectra which contain peaks within <tolerance> of any of
these values will be kept.
   <tolerance> is specified as a number and units (PPM or MZ). For example, "5
PPM" or "2.1 MZ".
   <type>, <threshold>, and <orientation> operate as in the "threshold" filter
(see above).
   <include|exclude> is optional and has value "include" (the default) or
"exclude".  If "exclude" is used the filter drops spectra that match the various
criteria instead of keeping them.

scanSumming [precursorTol=<precursor tolerance>] [scanTimeTol=<scan time
tolerance in seconds>] [ionMobilityTol=<ion mobility tolerance>]
This filter sums MS2 sub-scans whose precursors are within <precursor tolerance>
(default: 0.05 m/z), <scan time tolerance> (default: 10 s), and for ion mobility
data, <ion mobility tolerance> (default 0.01 ms or vs/cm^2). It is intended for
some Waters DDA data and Bruker PASEF data, where sub-scans should be summed
together to increase the SNR.

thermoScanFilter <exact|contains> <include|exclude> <match string>
   Includes or excludes scans based on the scan filter (Thermo instrumentation
only).
   <exact|contains>: If "exact" is set, spectra only match the search string if
there is an exact match.
                     If "contains" is set, spectra match the search string if
the search string is 
                     contained somewhere in the scan filter.
   <include|exclude>: If "include" is set, only spectra that match the filter
will be kept.
                      If "exclude" is set, only spectra that do NOT match the
filter will be kept.
                     used the filter drops data points that match the various
criteria instead of keeping them.   <match string> specifies the search string
to be compared to each scan filter (it may contain spaces)


MS2Denoise [<peaks_in_window> [<window_width_Da>
[multicharge_fragment_relaxation]]]
Noise peak removal for spectra with precursor ions.
   <peaks_in_window> - the number peaks to select in moving window, default is
6.
   <window_width_Da> - the width of the window in Da, default is 30.
   <multicharge_fragment_relaxation> - if "true" (the default), allows more data
below multiply charged precursors.
The filter first removes any m/z values above the precursor mass minus the mass
of glycine.
It then removes any m/z values within .5 Da of the unfragmented precursor mass.
Finally it retains only the <peaks_in_window> most intense ions within a sliding
window of <window_width_Da>.
If <multicharge_fragment_relaxation> is true, allows more peaks at lower mass
(i.e. below precursor).
If <window_width_Da> is set to 0, the window size defaults to the highest
observed mass in the spectrum (this leaving only <peaks_in_window> ions in the
output spectrum).

MS2Deisotope [hi_res [mzTol=<mzTol>]] [Poisson [minCharge=<minCharge>]
[maxCharge=<maxCharge>]]
Deisotopes ms2 spectra using the Markey method or a Poisson model.
  For the Markey method, hi_res sets high resolution mode to "false" (the
default) or "true".
  <mzTol> sets the mz tolerance.  It defaults to .01 in high resoltion mode,
otherwise it defaults to 0.5.
  Poisson activates a Poisson model based on the relative intensity
distribution.
  <minCharge> (default: 1) and <maxCharge> (default: 3) define the charge search
range within the Poisson deisotoper. (default: 1)

ETDFilter [<removePrecursor> [<removeChargeReduced> [<removeNeutralLoss>
[<blanketRemoval> [<matchingTolerance> ]]]]]
Filters ETD MSn spectrum data points, removing unreacted precursors,
charge-reduced precursors, and neutral losses.
  <removePrecursor> - if "true", remove unreacted precursor (default is "true")
  <removeChargeReduced> - if "true", remove charge reduced precursor (default is
"true")
  <removeNeutralLoss> - if "true", remove neutral loss species from charge
reduced precursor (default is "true")
  <blanketRemoval> - if "true", remove neutral losses in a charge-scaled 60 Da
swath rather than only around known loss species (default is "true")
  <matchingTolerance> - specify matching tolerance in m/z or ppm (examples: "3.1
mz" (the default) or "2.2 ppm")

demultiplex massError=<tolerance and units, eg 0.5Da (default 10ppm)>
nnlsMaxIter=<int (50)> nnlsEps=<real (1e-10)> noWeighting=<bool (false)>
demuxBlockExtra=<real (0)> variableFill=<bool (false)> noSumNormalize=<bool
(false)> optimization=<(none)|overlap_only> interpolateRT=<bool (true)>
minWindowSize=<real (0.2)>
Separates overlapping or MSX multiplexed spectra into several demultiplexed
spectra by inferring from adjacent multiplexed spectra. Optionally handles
variable fill times (for Thermo).

chargeStatePredictor [overrideExistingCharge=<true|false (false)>]
[maxMultipleCharge=<int (3)>] [minMultipleCharge=<int (2)>]
[singleChargeFractionTIC=<real (0.9)>] [maxKnownCharge=<int (0)>]
[makeMS2=<true|false (false)>]
Predicts MSn spectrum precursors to be singly or multiply charged depending on
the ratio of intensity above and below the precursor m/z, or optionally using
the "makeMS2" algorithm
  <overrideExistingCharge> : always override existing charge information
(default:"false")
  <maxMultipleCharge> (default 3) and <minMultipleCharge> (default 2): range of
values to add to the spectrum's existing "MS_possible_charge_state" values.If
these are the same values, the spectrum's MS_possible_charge_state values are
removed and replaced with this single value.
  <singleChargeFractionTIC> : is a percentage expressed as a value between 0 and
1 (the default is 0.9, or 90 percent). This is the value used as the previously
mentioned ratio of intensity above and below the precursor m/z.
  <maxKnownCharge> (default is 0, meaning no maximum): the maximum charge
allowed for "known" charges even if override existing charge is false. This
allows overriding junk charge calls like +15 peptides.
  <algorithmMakeMS2> : default is "false", when set to "true" the "makeMS2"
algorithm is used instead of the one described above.

turbocharger [minCharge=<minCharge>] [maxCharge=<maxCharge>]
[precursorsBefore=<before>] [precursorsAfter=<after>] [halfIsoWidth=<half-width
of isolation window>] [defaultMinCharge=<defaultMinCharge>]
[defaultMaxCharge=<defaultMaxCharge>] [useVendorPeaks=<useVendorPeaks>]
Predicts MSn spectrum precursor charge based on the isotopic distribution
associated with the survey scan(s) of the selected precursor
  <maxCharge> (default: 8) and <minCharge> (default 1): defines range of
possible precursor charge states.
  <before> (default: 2) and <after> (default 0): number of survey (MS1) scans to
check for precursor isotopes, before and after a MS/MS in retention time.
  <half-width of isolation window> (default: 1.25): half-width of the isolation
window (in Th.) from which precursor is derived. Window is centered at target
m/z with a total size of +/- the value entered.
  <defaultMinCharge> (default: 0) and <defaultMaxCharge> (default: 0): in the
event that no isotope is found in the isolation window, a range of charges
between these two values will be assigned to the spectrum. If both values are
left at zero, no charge will be assigned to the spectrum.

activation <precursor_activation_type>
Keeps only spectra whose precursors have the specifed activation type.  It
doesn't affect non-MS spectra, and doesn't affect MS1 spectra. Use it to create
output files containing only ETD or CID MSn data where both activation modes
have been interleaved within a given input vendor data file (eg: Thermo's
Decision Tree acquisition mode).
   <precursor_activation_type> is any one of: ETD CID SA HCD HECID BIRD ECD
IRMPD PD PSD PQD SID or SORI.

collisionEnergy low=<real> high=<real> [mode=<include|exclude (include)>]
[acceptNonCID=<true|false (true)] [acceptMissingCE=<true|false (false)]
Includes/excludes MSn spectra with CID collision energy within the specified
range [<low>, <high>].
   Non-MS and MS1 spectra are always included. Non-CID MS2s and MS2s with
missing CE are optionally included/excluded.

analyzer <analyzer>
This filter keeps only spectra with the indicated mass analyzer type. 
  <analyzer> is any one of "quad" "orbi" "FT" "IT" or "TOF".
Sometimes people use the terms FT and Orbi interchangeably, which is OK because
there are no hybrid FT+Orbi instruments - so this filter does too.


analyzerType <analyzer>
This is deprecated syntax for filtering by mass analyzer type.
  <analyzer> can be "FTMS" or "ITMS".

polarity <polarity>
Keeps only spectra with scan of the selected <polarity>.
   <polarity> is any one of "positive" "negative" "+" or "-".

diaUmpire params=<filepath to DiaUmpire .params file>
Separates DIA spectra into pseudo-DDA spectra using the DIA Umpire algorithm.
