Canvas: versatile and scalable detection of copy number variants.
Bioinformatics 2016 August 2
MOTIVATION: Versatile and efficient variant calling tools are needed to analyze large scale sequencing datasets. In particular, identification of copy number changes remains a challenging task due to their complexity, susceptibility to sequencing biases, variation in coverage data and dependence on genome-wide sample properties, such as tumor polyploidy or polyclonality in cancer samples.
RESULTS: We have developed a new tool, Canvas, for identification of copy number changes from diverse sequencing experiments including whole-genome matched tumor-normal and single-sample normal re-sequencing, as well as whole-exome matched and unmatched tumor-normal studies. In addition to variant calling, Canvas infers genome-wide parameters such as cancer ploidy, purity and heterogeneity. It provides fast and easy-to-run workflows that can scale to thousands of samples and can be easily incorporated into variant calling pipelines.
AVAILABILITY AND IMPLEMENTATION: Canvas is distributed under an open source license and can be downloaded from https://github.com/Illumina/canvas
