A novel method for the interpretation
of spectrometer signals based on delta-
modulation and similarity determination

For the application of mass spectrometry in different
areas the automatic intelligent spectrometer signal
analysis methods are necessary. These methods
should be robust and machine learnable automatic
signal interpretation methods. These methods should
be taken into account that not so much spectrometer
data about the application are available from scratch
and that these data need to be learnt while using the
spectrometer system. We propose to represent the
spectrometer signal by a sequence of 0/1 characters
obtained from a specific delta modulator. This prevents
us from a particular symbolic description of peaks and
background. The interpretation of the spectrometer
signal is done by searching for a similar signal in a
constantly increasing data base. The comparison

similarity measure. We describe in this paper how the
signal representation is obtained by delta modulation,
the similaritymeasure for the comparison of the signals
and give results for searching the data base.
