hsegHMM: hidden Markov model-based allele-specific copy number alteration analysis accounting for hypersegmentation
Abstract Background Somatic copy number alternation (SCNA) is a common feature of the cancer genome and is associated with cancer etiology and prognosis.The allele-specific SCNA analysis of a tumor sample aims to identify the allele-specific copy numbers of both alleles, adjusting for the ploidy and the tumor purity.Next generation sequencing platf
