How to perform concensus calling for cell-free DNA (cfDNA) sequencing data?

03 August 2016 1 9K Report

Recently, I read some papers for cfDNA-seq analysis, in which concensus calling was emphasized for times, I tried to find out what that means and understood that some cfDNA fragments were too short for later data mining.

My question is how to perform concensus calling, alignment between reads or screening based on their lengths and genomic mapping positions?

Thank you very much!
