“…Several new score functions and database searching tools have also been introduced, including Mascot, HyperScore of X!Tandem, Morpheus, and MS Amanda; however, these traditional methods are based on manually constructed score functions and have resulted in only minor improvements as compared with SEQUEST . Recent studies have focused on (1) score calibration methods to provide a well-defined accurate semantics so that the spectrum annotations can be compared with each other ,,− or (2) postprocessing methods, such as Percolator, Prosit, PeptideProphet, ProteoTorchDNN, and DeepRescore to re-rank database search results to improve the number of spectrum annotations at various false discovery rates (FDRs).…”
