Abstract excerpt
Somatic copy number (CN) alterations are major drivers of tumorigenesis and growth. Although next-generation sequencing (NGS) technologies enable a deep genomic analysis of cancers, the analysis of the data remains subject to biases and multiple sources of error, including varying local read coverage. The currently existing algorithms for NGS-based detection of CN abberations do not incorporate information on the...
