BACOM 1.0 – Bayesian Analysis of COpy number Mixtures

BACOM 1.0

:: DESCRIPTION

BACOM (Bayesian Analysis of COpy number Mixtures) is a statistically-principled in silico approach to accurately estimate genomic deletions and normal tissue contamination, and accordingly recover the true copy number profile in cancer cells. We have developed a cross-platform and open source Java application that implements the whole pipeline of copy number analysis of heterogeneous cancer tissues and other relevant processing steps. We also provide an R interface, bacomR, for running BACOM within the R environment, through which users can smoothly incorporate BACOM into their specific analyses.
