ARYCAL

Overview

ARYCAL (Across Run dYnamic Chromatogram ALignment) is a Rust-based tool for aligning extracted ion chromatograms (EICs) across multiple runs from targeted DIA mass spectrometry data. ARYCAL is based on similar principles as DIAlignR [1], using dynamic programming to align precursor chromatographic traces across multiple runs. In addition, ARYCAL supports the use of fast Fourier transform (FFT) for alignment, which can reduce the time required for alignment.
