ReadDepth 0.9.8.4 – Detects Copy Number Aberrations in Deep Sequencing Data

ReadDepth 0.9.8.4

:: DESCRIPTION

The readDepth package for R can detect copy number aberrations by measuring the depth of coverage obtained by massively parallel sequencing of the genome. It achieves higher accuracy than many other packages, and runs much faster by utilizing multi-core architectures to parallelize the processing of these large data sets.

CNVineta 1.0-1 – Data mining tool for large case-control copy number variation data sets

CNVineta 1.0-1

:: DESCRIPTION

CNVineta is a flexible data mining tool for the analysis of copy number variations (CNVs) in large case-control SNP array data sets. The tool is available as an R statistical package. CNVineta offers a flexible and fast access to CNVs by a quick graphical overview in large case-control datasets. In addition, CNVineta provides rapid access to the log2 of raw data ratios (LRR) and B-allele frequencies (BAF) of specific or all samples, thereby allowing for a fast verification of the underlying raw data. CNVineta is also equipped with analysis methods for genome-wide screening for associated rare as well as common CNVs. Hence, CNVineta is a unique data mining tool to rapidly explore CNVs in large case-control data sets.

genoCN 1.09 – Identify Copy Number States and Genotype Calls.

genoCN 1.09

:: DESCRIPTION

GenoCN is a software that simultaneously identify copy number states and genotype calls. Different strategies are implemented for the study of Copy Number Variations (CNVs) and Copy Number Aberrations (CNAs). While CNVs are naturally occurring and inheritable, CNAs are acquired somatic alterations most often observed in tumor tissues only. CNVs tend to be short and more sparsely located in the genome compared to CNAs. GenoCN consists of two components, genoCNV and genoCNA, designed for CNV and CNA studies, respectively. In contrast to most existing methods, genoCN is more flexible in that the model parameters are estimated from the data instead of being decided a priori. genoCNA also incorporates two important strategies for CNA studies. First, the effects of tissue contamination are explicitly modeled. Second, if SNP arrays are performed for both tumor and normal tissues of one individual, the genotype calls from normal tissue are used to study CNAs in tumor tissue.

BIC-seq 2 0.2.4 – Copy Number analysis from Whole-genome Sequencing data

BIC-seq 2 0.2.4

:: DESCRIPTION

BIC-seq can accurately and efficiently identify CNVs via minimizing the Bayesian information criterion.Using BIC-seq, we identified hundreds of CNVs as small as 40 bp in the cancer genome sequenced at 10× coverage, whereas we could only detect large CNVs (> 15 kb) in the array comparative genomic hybridization profiles for the same genome.

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.
