Installation

There are two means of installing SpectralAnalysis and you can choose the one that best fits your use case. The standalone version works without requiring a MATLAB licence, however this cannot be modified or make use of any of the ‘advanced’ functionality. The source code version requires a valid MATLAB licence, however can perform both general and advanced functionality.

Standalone Version

Currently requires 64-bit Windows. If you are running 32-bit Windows and want a standalone version please contact me.

  1. Download and extract the zip file of the latest release
  2. Download and install the R2016b (9.1) MATLAB Runtime
  3. Download and install the Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2015
  4. Run SpectralAnalysis.exe

Source code Version

The source code version requires a valid MATLAB licence.

Increase Java Heap Space

Prior to running SpectralAnalysis, it is advisable to increase the ‘Java Heap Size’ allocated to MATLAB to the maximum available. This enables larger imzML files to be opened successfully.

Installation with Git

 git clone https://github.com/AlanRace/SpectralAnalysis
 cd SpectralAnalysis
 git submodule update --init

Installation without Git

  1. Download the source code of the latest release
  2. Download the latest version of MOOGL and place in the SpectralAnalysis\src\gui\MOOGL folder
  3. Open MATLAB and navigate to the folder containing the source code
  4. Run the command runSpectralAnalysis
