## Description
**iCNV** is a normalization and copy number variation detection procedure for mutiple study designs: WES only, WGS only, SNP array only, or any combination of SNP and sequencing data. **iCNV** applies platform specific normalization, utilizes allele specific reads from sequencing and integrates matched NGS and SNP-array data by a Hidden Markov Model (HMM).
## Installation
* Install from GitHub
```r
# try http:// if https:// URLs are not supported
if (!requireNamespace("BiocManager", quietly=TRUE))
install.packages("BiocManager")
BiocManager::install("CODEX")
# Install iCNV
install.packages("devtools")
library(devtools)
install_github("zhouzilu/iCNV")
```
## Update
**iCNV** has made a lot of changes on 10/31/2017 for stability, bug fixing and computation power. We strongly recommend you update iCNV to the newest version using the following command.
* Update instruction
```r
# Remove iCNV
remove.packages('iCNV')
# reinstall iCNV
install.packages("devtools")
library(devtools)
install_github("zhouzilu/iCNV")
```
