What spec2vec can do for you

  • Allows to learn abstract mass spectra representations from large mass spectral data sets (unsupervised learning).
  • Computes mass spectra similarities that show a high correlation with actual molecular similarity.

Spec2vec is a novel spectral similarity score inspired by a natural language processing
algorithm -- Word2Vec. Where Word2Vec learns relationships between words in sentences,
spec2vec does so for mass fragments and neutral losses in MS/MS spectra.
The spectral similarity score is based on spectral embeddings learnt
from the fragmental relationships within a large set of spectral data.
