Converter Coverage Matrix

This page lists which QPX data views each converter produces. Use it to see at a glance what output to expect from each tool.

Views produced per converter

Converter PSM Feature PG Pepmap Sample Run Dataset Ontology Provenance mz
MaxQuant Yes Yes Yes No If SDRF If SDRF Yes If SDRF No No
FragPipe Yes Yes Yes No If SDRF If SDRF Yes If SDRF No No
DIA-NN No Yes Yes No If SDRF If SDRF Yes If SDRF No No
quantms Yes Yes Yes No If SDRF If SDRF Yes Yes No No
mzIdentML Yes No No Yes If SDRF If SDRF Yes Yes Yes No
SDRF No No No No Yes Yes No Optional No No
  • Yes — the converter produces this view.
  • No — the converter does not produce this view (e.g. DIA-NN has no PSM view; mzIdentML has no Feature/PG).
  • If SDRF — the view is produced only when an SDRF file is provided (sample and run metadata). SDRF is optional for all converters.
