Bayesian Copy Number Variation Analysis
Bayesian copy number variation (CNV) analysis is a probabilistic framework for detecting genomic segments where an individual's DNA copy count deviates from the diploid norm. By placing prior distributions over copy-number states and updating them with array CGH, SNP array, or sequencing read-depth evidence, the approach yields posterior probabilities for each copy-number state along the genome, providing statistically principled uncertainty quantification that frequentist segmentation methods lack.
