Interesting idea. May I ask two questions?
1. Is the precursor detection performed before or after the database search?
2. If it is performed before the search, how can one identify the complementary fragment ions without knowing the precursor mass or peptide sequence?
Thanks

We didn’t cherry-pick the dataset for the benchmark—FragPipe also delivers excellent performance on another dataset (PXD028735).

Questions are always welcome! We're always happy to hear your feedback. (3/3)

We also benchmarked LFQ precision and accuracy against the latest versions of other popular tools. Here's an protein-level LFQbench-style plot using the PXD003881 (IonStar) dataset. (1/3)

It doesn't "predict" the library. It perform the spectrum-centric search to get the IDs and build the experimental library.

And for the DIA without ion mobility, it is basically what DIA-Umpire is doing: www.nature.com/articles/nme...
