Characterization of spectral components essential for cancer classification. A – The three most frequent differentiating components are marked with arrows along the mass spectra of serum samples of cancer patients (red lines) and healthy controls (green lines). B – Actual spectral plots of three selected components for cancer patients (red lines) and healthy controls (green lines), as well as modeled Gaussian kernels (blue curves); X-axes represent the m/z values, Y-axes represent intensities. Box-plots on the right represent quantification of the abundance of spectral components in samples from cancer patients (red) and healthy controls (green) (shown are minimum, lower quartile, median, upper quartile and maximum values; outliers are marked by asterisks).
