The advent of high-throughput sequencing technologies is revolutionizing our ability in discovering and genotyping DNA copy number variants (CNVs). Read count-based approaches are able to detect CNV regions with an unprecedented resolution. Although this computational strategy has been recently introduced in literature, much work has been already done for the preparation, normalization and analysis of this kind of data.
