Time-Series Alignment by Non-negative Multiple Generalized Canonical Correlation Analysis

Background: Quantitative analysis of differential protein expressions requires to align temporal elution measurements from liquid chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry (LC/MS). We propose multiple Canonical Correlation Analysis (mCCA) as a method to align the non-linearly distorted time scales of repeated LC/MS experiments in a robust way. Results: Multiple canonical correlation analysis is able to map several time series to a consensus time scale. The alignment function is learned in a supervised fashion. We compare our approach with previously published methods for aligning mass spectrometry data on a large proteomics dataset. The proposed method significantly increases the number of proteins that are identified as being differentially expressed in different biological samples. Conclusion: Jointly aligning multiple liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry samples by mCCA substantially increases the detection rate of potential bio-markers which significantly improves the interpr...
