Abstract
Technology provided herein relates in part to non-invasive classification of one or more genetic copy number alterations (CNAs) for a test sample. Certain methods include sampling a quantification of sequence reads from parts of a genome, generating a confidence determination, and using the confidence determination to enhance classification. Technology provided herein is useful for classifying a genetic CNA for a sample as part of non-invasive pre-natal (NIPT) testing and oncology testing, for example.
