scquantum: Estimate Ploidy and Absolute Copy Number from Single Cell Sequencing

Given bincount data from single-cell copy number profiling (segmented or unsegmented), estimates ploidy, and uses the ploidy estimate to scale the data to absolute copy numbers. Uses the modular quantogram proposed by Kendall (1986) <doi:10.1002/0471667196.ess2129.pub2>, modified by weighting segments according to confidence, and quantifying confidence in the estimate using a theoretical quantogram. Includes optional fused-lasso segmentation with the algorithm in Johnson (2013) <doi:10.1080/10618600.2012.681238>, using the implementation from glmgen by Arnold, Sadhanala, and Tibshirani.
