Using sigLASSO to optimize cancer mutation signatures jointly with sampling likelihood

The next generation sequencing has provided the opportunity to look for signatures of carcinogenesis on a genome wide scale. Here, the authors develop the algorithm, sigLASSO, that provides confidence in assigning mutational signatures when the mutation count is low and the samples used are variable...
