Motivation: Tumor sequencing has entered an exciting phase with the advent of single-cell techniques that are revolutionizing the assessment of single nucleotide variation (SNV) at the highest cellular resolution. However, state-of-the-art single-cell sequencing technologies produce data with many missing bases (MBs) and incorrect base designations...

Context 1
... this example, cells from the same clones (the same color) generally cluster together, but identical cells of a clone can show extensive observed sequence divergence (e.g., brown cells in Fig. 2a and 3a). Given this ini- tial cell phylogeny and the initial cell sequences, we estimate PP of each possible base assignment at each position in a cell sequence. This compu- tation is explained by considering a set of four sequences (Fig. 4). In this tree, x1 to x3 represent the nucleotides at a given position in the tumor cell sequence; x4 is the wild-type base from the normal cell ...
