aroma.affymetrix

aroma.affymetrix is an R package for the analysis of Affymetrix data to detect copy number variation (CNV). The aroma.affymetrix algorithm computes an unbiased reference signal from the test samples using publicly available reference sets in an attempt to eliminate an in-house reference.
