MsQuality
The MsQuality provides functionality to calculate quality metrics for mass spectrometry-derived, spectral data at the per-sample level. MsQuality relies on the mzQC framework of quality metrics defined by the Human Proteom Organization-Proteomics Standards Initiative (HUPO-PSI). These metrics quantify the quality of spectral raw files using a controlled vocabulary. The package is especially addressed towards users that acquire mass spectrometry data on a large scale (e.g. data sets from clinical settings consisting of several thousands of samples). The MsQuality package allows to calculate low-level quality metrics that require minimum information on mass spectrometry data: retention time, m/z values, and associated intensities. MsQuality relies on the Spectra package, or alternatively the MsExperiment package, and its infrastructure to store spectral data. Additionally, MsQuality supports Chromatograms objects from the Chromatograms package for chromatographic quality metrics.

The 'phenomis' package provides methods to perform post-processing (i.e. quality control and normalization) as well as univariate statistical analysis of single and multi-omics data sets. These methods include quality control metrics, signal drift and batch effect correction, intensity transformation, univariate hypothesis testing, but also clustering (as well as annotation of metabolomics data). The data are handled in the standard Bioconductor formats (i.e. SummarizedExperiment and MultiAssayExperiment for single and multi-omics datasets, respectively; the alternative ExpressionSet and MultiDataSet formats are also supported for convenience). As a result, all methods can be readily chained as workflows. The pipeline can be further enriched by multivariate analysis and feature selection, by using the 'ropls' and 'biosigner' packages, which support the same formats. Data can be conveniently imported from and exported to text files. Although the methods were initially targeted to metabolomics data, most of the methods can be applied to other types of omics data (e.g., transcriptomics, proteomics).

squallms is a Bioconductor R package that implements a "semi-labeled" approach to untargeted mass spectrometry data. It pulls in raw data from mass-spec files to calculate several metrics that are then used to label MS features in bulk as high or low quality. These metrics of peak quality are then passed to a simple logistic model that produces a fully-labeled dataset suitable for downstream analysis.

The hdxmsqc package enables us to analyse and visualise the quality of HDX-MS experiments. Either as a final quality check before downstream analysis and publication or as part of a interative procedure to determine the quality of the data. The package builds on the QFeatures and Spectra packages to integrate with other mass-spectrometry data.
