Description | In present, microarray CGH experiments became a powerful technique for analysing changes in DNA, by comparing control DNA and DNA of interest. This is widely used for example in genome cancer or species distin-guishing studies. The method produce huge amount of data and special statistic techniques for detecting copy number changes regions are necessary. We propose a new method for detecting breakpoints in DNA. The performance of the method is demonstrated using publicly available data set. |
