Hi Sam,

I am doing similar stuff with you. I also need to identify regions which 
are amplified or deleted. I have paired samples. 
There are quite many different ways to define gain and loss of a segment. 
It is a tricky question.

I did not get your point.

My experience is that CBS is faster than GLAD. When I ran GLAD with 4 
samples, it took like two or more to finish them.

You can replace GLAD model with CBS model (cns <- CbsModel(dsT, dsN)where 
dsN is average of all the controls).

Do you need to identify copy number alterations (CNA)? or Just copy number 
variants(CNV)? I need to identify CNA not CNV. For now I do not know how. 
Do you know also how to map amplified or deleted region to genes?  If you 
know something about it, happy to hear.

C.Y
