rSW-seq – Detection of Copy Number Alterations in Deep Sequencing data

rSW-seq

:: DESCRIPTION

rSW-seq is designed to identify copy number alterations between tumor-vs-matched normal genomes (or between normal-vs-normal genomes for CNV detection) from deep sequencing data generated by next-generation sequencing.  Compared to other algorithms (BreakDancer or MoDIL) using PEM (paired-end mapping) signatures, rSW-seq uses ‘read-depth’ as primary measure, which can be applied to single-end sequencing read set.
