The PSCBS package implements the parent-specific copy-number segmentation presented in Olshen et al. (2011). Package vignette ‘Parent-specific copy-number segmentation using Paired PSCBS’ provides a detailed introduction for running PSCBS segmentation. It’s available as:
Below is an excerpt of the example found in that vignette:
library(PSCBS)
## Get single-chromosome example data
data <- exampleData("paired.chr01")
str(data)

## Drop total copy-number outliers
data <- dropSegmentationOutliers(data)
## Identify chromosome arms from data
gaps <- findLargeGaps(data, minLength = 1e+06)
knownSegments <- gapsToSegments(gaps)
## Parent-specific copy-number segmentation
fit <- segmentByPairedPSCBS(data, knownSegments = knownSegments)
## Get segments as a data.frame
segments <- getSegments(fit, simplify = TRUE)

The package supports segmentation of the chromosomes in parallel (asynchronously) via futures by adding the following
to the beginning of the PSCBS script. Everything else will work the same. To reset to non-parallel processing, use future::plan("sequential")
.
To configure this automatically whenever the package is loaded, see future vignette ‘A Future for R: Controlling Default Future Strategy’.

R package PSCBS is available on CRAN and can be installed in R as:
# install.packages("BiocManager")
BiocManager::install(c("aroma.light", "DNAcopy"))
install.packages("PSCBS")
To install the pre-release version that is available in Git branch develop
on GitHub, use:
This will install the package from source.
These binaries (installable software) and packages are in development.
They may not be fully stable and should be used with caution. We make no claims about them.
