Abstract:It is no understatement that mass spectrometry is revolutionizing biological studies. Current mass spectrometers are capable of a tremendous throughput, and can survey thousands of proteins from complex sample mixtures. The most commonly applied mass spectrometry techniques is Tandem-MS. This high-throughput technology generates huge amounts of data. Databases are critical for recording and carefully storing this data. This project considers data acquisition performed by a vendor specific software that generates a file annotating the mass spectra and look up file. The mass spectra data file is given as an input to Hadoop. Here the file is divided into smaller chunks of large file based on the requirements. These smaller chunks are then compared with look up file and required analytics is performed. And the output is given in an interactive visualization environment.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
