Modeling Lower-Order Statistics to Enable Decoy-Free FDR Estimation in Proteomics

In our previous Journal Club blog post, we discussed «nanopore profiling,» a method for identifying proteins within the field of proteomics. Today we proceed with «how to validate the identification statistically other than the traditional target-decoy method with an improved version of the decoy-free approach» based on Dominik et al.’s article «Modeling lower-order statistics to […]
