Package aroma.cn

Description

Methods for analyzing DNA copy-number data. Specifically, this package implements the multi-source copy-number normalization (MSCN) method for normalizing copy-number data obtained on various platforms and technologies. It also implements the TumorBoost method for normalizing paired tumor-normal SNP data.

This package should be considered to be in an alpha or beta phase. You should expect the API to be changing over time.
