OSD: AN R PACKAGE FOR GC-MS DATA PROCESSING

OSD is an R package for compound deconvolution for GC-MS data. The package includes functions to perform orthogonal signal deconvolution (OSD), independent component regression (ICR) and multivariate curve resolution (MCR-ALS).

The osd R package is freely available on the Comprehensive R Archive Network (CRAN) at http://CRAN.R-project.org/package=osd

Different examples for the use of the OSD package can be found in the help attached in the package. More information can be found in the following papers:
