SWITCHdna

SWITCHdna is an R library for detection of copy number variation (CNV). The algorithm is based on intensity data from copy number platforms, identifies transition points, and tests the significance using Fisher's exact test, Chi-square approximations, and Wilcoxon rank-sum tests. The library includes a function for visualization of data.
