Sintesi	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.	Variant calling is the computational process of identifying positions in a sequenced genome that differ from a reference sequence — including single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), small insertions and deletions (indels), and structural variants. It transforms aligned sequencing reads into an interpretable catalogue of genetic differences, forming the foundation for population genetics, disease-gene discovery, and clinical genomics applications.
