SpectraData

Enum DisplayableTypes

• Raw, Baseline, BaselineCorrected, Denoised, Centroids, Peaks

Public Members

• Name - spectra name
• Classification[] - collection of classifications(string descriptors) for this spectra
• Color - color to represent this spectra
• RawCurve[] - collection of points creating raw signal
• BaselineCurve[] - collection of points creating baseline curve
• BaselineCorrectedCurve[] - collection of points representing the raw signal after baseline correction
  • Possibly can be derived instead of stored separate?
• DenoisedCurve[] - collection of points showing denoised data
  • Possibly can just be a collection of indices of 'valid' points from RawCurve?
• Centroids[] - collection of ranges (start and end point) of centroids
  • Possibly can be derived from DenoisedCurve?
• Peaks[] - collection of points showing peaks
  • The same as the DenoisedCurve, drawn differently?

Possible Issues

• Memory size limitation for numerous spectra
  • Possibly use memory-mapped version?
    • Hold file index of most-recently acessed leftmost point (left limit of window) and continue to read from there onwards
    • Keep a cache of 50 or so points ('valid points' as defined in SpectraDisplay) in memory for redrawing
  • Possibly draw once as static bitmap, then only redraw on zoom?
    • Would have to calculate visibility of points, and only draw over parts of current image if the visibility would change or be effected.
    • Somewhat complex system of layering to determine what must be redrawn, but system could be reused
    • Occlusion detection algorithms for adding information - removing information same, just set color to white
    • Policy of always adding most recent information to top?
