摘要
Mass spectrometry is one of the widely utilized important methods to study protein functions and components. The challenge of mono-isotope pattern recognition from large scale protein mass spectral data needs computational algorithms and tools to speed up the analysis and improve the analytic results. We utilized na¨？ve Bayes network as the classifier with the assumption that the selected features are independent to predict monoisotope pattern from mass spectrometry. Mono-isotopes detected from validated theoretical spectra were used as prior information in the Bayes method. Three main features extracted from the dataset were employed as independent variables in our model. The application of the proposed algorithm to public Mo dataset demonstrates that our na¨？ve Bayes classifier is advantageous over existing methods in both accuracy and sensitivity.
