CNVDetector: locating copy number variations using array CGH data.
CNVDetector is a program for locating copy number variations (CNVs) in a single genome. CNVDetector has several merits: (i) it can deal with the array comparative genomic hybridization data even if the noise is not normally distributed; (ii) it has a linear time kernel; (iii) its parameters can be easily selected; (iv) it evaluates the statistical significance for each CNV calling.


BACKGROUND
CNVDetector (for Windows platform) can be downloaded from http:www.csie.ntu.edu.tw/~kmchao/tools/CNVDetector/. The manual of CNVDetector is also available.
