Dear Henrik, I was trying to run CBS model on a set of paired CN estimates. The data were generated using an Illumina platform, so I have followed "Vignette: Creating binary data files containing copy number estimates" to create the log2ratio CN estimates between a tumor sample and its matched normal.
I have loaded the data with the following codes: dataSet = "Dataset,tagA,tagB"; chipType = "HumanOmni1-Quad"; ds = AromaUnitTotalCnBinarySet$byName(dataSet,chipType=chipType); cbs = CbsModel(ds); However, when I looked at how the CBS model was set up, it says: > cbs CbsModel: Name: Dataset Tags: tagA,tagB Chip type (virtual): HumanOmni1-Quad Path: cbsData/Dataset,tagA,tagB/HumanOmni1-Quad Number of chip types: 1 Sample & reference file pairs: Chip type #1 of 1 ('HumanOmni1-Quad'): Sample data set: AromaUnitTotalCnBinarySet: Name: Dataset Tags: tagA,tagB Full name: Dataset,tagA,tagB Number of files: 10 Names: sample1, sample2, ..., sample10 [10] Path (to the first file): rawCnData/Dataset,tagA,tagB/HumanOmni1-Quad Total file size: 43.46 MB RAM: 0.02MB Reference data set/file: <average across arrays> RAM: 0.00MB It seems to me that the CBS model is using "<average across arrays>" as reference, which would not be what I want, since my CN estimates have already been referenced. So my questions are: 1. Is this how CBS will behave? 2. Is there a way to let CBS take the CN estimates "as is", without contrasting to any reference? Thank you very much for your help on this.
