Get rid of peaks with small prominence

Hello, i am looking to get rid of false positive in my data and want to delete all the peaks with a prominence that is less than a set threshold. i have all all the prominences of the peaks and my threshold is 10. How would i go about deletcing the locations of the peaks that are false positives?

Look into findpeaks. There is a MinPeakProminence input setting you can use to ignore peaks below your defined threshold.
You can also use the Find Local Extrema task in a live script to do this interactively. Once you have determined the proper settings, you can convert the task to code.
