1. An apparatus, comprising:
at least one memory; and
logic, coupled to the at least one memory, operative to implement a targeted compound detection process, the logic to:
receive raw data from analysis of a sample via an analytical device,
generate cumulative data from the raw data, the cumulative data representing aggregate, aligned, or clustered data from a cumulative set of injections to the analytical device, wherein on each injection, a retention time correction is applied, and the cumulative data represents an averaged pseudo-injection that is built by summing the injections together after applying the retention time corrections,
receive compound specification information associated with the sample, and
determine quantified compound information via performing targeted compound detection based on the cumulative data and the compound specification information.
