Supplementary Figure 4: Evidence qualifying procedure in PECAN.
From: PECAN: library-free peptide detection for data-independent acquisition tandem mass spectrometry data
An evidence of detection (abbr. evidence) for a query peptide p at the time t is the average of the calibrated primary scores from a short period of retention time (see Methods), centered at the time t. Following this flowchart, PECAN reports a user-defined number of qualified evidence(s) that are calculated from primary scores which have never been used to calculate other qualified evidences(s).
