Detailed Description

template<typename Container = MSSpectrum>
class OpenMS::SignalToNoiseEstimatorMedian< Container >

Estimates the signal/noise (S/N) ratio of each data point in a scan by using the median (histogram based)

For each datapoint in the given scan, we collect a range of data points around it (param: win_len). The noise for a datapoint is estimated to be the median of the intensities of the current window. If the number of elements in the current window is not sufficient (param: MinReqElements), the noise level is set to a default value (param: noise_for_empty_window). The whole computation is histogram based, so the user will need to supply a number of bins (param: bin_count), which determines the level of error and runtime. The maximal intensity for a datapoint to be included in the histogram can be either determined automatically (params: AutoMaxIntensity, auto_mode) by two different methods or can be set directly by the user (param: max_intensity). If the (estimated) max_intensity value is too low and the median is found to be in the last (&highest) bin, a warning will be given. In this case you should increase max_intensity (and optionally the bin_count).

Changing any of the parameters will invalidate the S/N values (which will invoke a recomputation on the next request).

Note: If more than 20 percent of windows have less than min_required_elements of elements, a warning is issued to OPENMS_LOG_WARN and noise estimates in those windows are set to the constant noise_for_empty_window.; If more than 1 percent of median estimations had to rely on the last(=rightmost) bin (which gives an unreliable result), a warning is issued to OPENMS_LOG_WARN. In this case you should increase max_intensity (and optionally the bin_count).; You can disable logging this error by setting write_log_messages and read out the values
