MarkerMatch: a proximity-based probe-matching algorithm for joint analysis of copy-number variants from different genotyping arrays.

Abstract excerpt

MOTIVATION: Copy-number variants (CNVs) are a form of genetic structural variation with increasing importance in complex human disorders. Both DNA sequencing and microarray data can be used to detect CNVs, which can be used in genetic association tests. Unlike genotypes, CNV detection in microarrays requires the use of observed intensity signals at each probe, which limits the imputability for analyses that span...
