A Bayesian Analysis for Identifying DNA Copy Number Variations Using a Compound Poisson Process
To study chromosomal aberrations that may lead to cancer formation or genetic diseases, the array-based Comparative Genomic Hybridization (aCGH) technique is often used for detecting DNA copy number variants (CNVs). Various methods have been developed for gaining CNVs information based on aCGH data. However, most of these methods make use of the log-intensity ratios in aCGH data without taking ...
متن کاملStatistical issues in the analysis of DNA Copy Number Variations
Approaches to assess copy number variation have advanced rapidly and are being incorporated into genetic studies. While the technology exists for CNV genotyping, a further understanding and discussion of how to use the CNV data for association analyses is warranted. We present the options available for processing and analysing CNV data. We break these steps down into choice of genotyping platfo...
متن کاملFramework for Identifying Common Aberrations in DNA Copy Number Data
High-resolution array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) provides exon-level mapping of DNA aberrations in cells or tissues. Such aberrations are central to carcinogenesis and, in many cases, central to targeted therapy of the cancers. Some of the aberrations are sporadic, one-of-a-kind changes in particular tumor samples; others occur frequently and reflect common themes in cancer biolog...
متن کاملStudying copy number variations using a nanofluidic platform
Copy number variations (CNVs) in the human genome are conventionally detected using high-throughput scanning technologies, such as comparative genomic hybridization and high-density single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) microarrays, or relatively low-throughput techniques, such as quantitative polymerase chain reaction (PCR). All these approaches are limited in resolution and can at best disting...
متن کاملCompound Poisson process approximation
Compound Poisson processes are often useful as approximate models, when describing the occurrence of rare events. In this paper, we develop a method for showing how close such approximations are. Our approach is to use Stein's method directly, rather than by way of declumping and a marked Poisson process; this has conceptual advantages, but entails technical difficulties. Several applications a...
