CNregions {iClusterPlus} | R Documentation

## A function to remove redundant copy number regions

### Description

This function is used to reduce copy number regions.

### Usage

    CNregions(seg, epsilon=0.005, adaptive=FALSE, rmCNV=FALSE, cnv=NULL,
    	       frac.overlap=0.5, rmSmallseg=TRUE, nProbes=15)

### Arguments

`seg` | DNAcopy CBS segmentation output.
`epsilon` | the maximum Euclidean distance between adjacent probes tolerated for denying a nonredundant region. epsilon=0 is equivalent to taking the union of all unique break points across the n samples.
`adaptive` | Vector of length-m lasso penalty terms.
`rmCNV` | If TRUE, remove germline CNV.
`cnv` | A data frame containing germline CNV data.
`frac.overlap` | A parameter needed to be explain.
`rmSmallseg` | If TRUE, remove small segment.
`nProbes` | The segment length threshold below which the segment will be removed if rmSmallseq = TRUE.

### Value

A matrix with reduced copy number regions.
