  • Assessed feature selection methods: Golub index, Student t-test, SVM-F, SVM recursive feature elimination.

    • Main Results:

    • Z-normalization combined with the SVM-F method accurately identified the presence and quantity of spiked protein markers across different concentrations.
    • This combination proved effective in distinguishing differentially expressed proteins in complex samples.

    Conclusions:

    • The combination of Z-normalization and SVM-F is a robust strategy for analyzing spectral counting data.
    • This approach enhances the accuracy of identifying and quantifying differential protein expression in complex biological mixtures.
