BayesCCE: a Bayesian framework for estimating cell-type composition from DNA methylation without the need for methylation reference

We introduce a Bayesian semi-supervised method for estimating cell counts from DNA methylation by leveraging an easily obtainable prior knowledge on the cell-type composition distribution of the studied tissue. We show mathematically and empirically that alternative methods which attempt to infer ce...
