Tumor purity and ploidy have a substantial impact on next-gen sequence analyses of tumor samples and may alter the biological and clinical interpretation of results. Despite the existence of several computational methods that are dedicated to estimate tumor purity and/or ploidy from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) tumor-normal whole-genome-sequencing (WGS) data, an accurate, fast and fully-automated method that works in a wide range of sequencing coverage, level of tumor purity and level of intra-tumor heterogeneity, is still missing.
