Are you sure you are not picking up old results, that is, did you use fit(cbs, ..., force=TRUE) or simply did you remove the previous segmentation results in cbsData/?
You can troubleshoot with one array and one chromosome, e.g. fit(cbs, arrays=6, chromosomes=16, min.width=5, undo.splits="sdundo", undo.SD=1, force=TRUE, verbose=-10); /Henrik On Wed, Oct 27, 2010 at 11:20 AM, Kai <wangz...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi Henrik, > > Thank you for your reply.
