NGS CNVtools with no controls

Hi,

There are a lot of NGS tools to detect CNVs from exome and whole genome sequencing data. However, most of the tools which I came across do need a control to calculate the CNVs. Could someone suggest some good tools which can work without control sample.

WaveCNV doesn't require a control. It also creates some very nice figures automatically.

cn.mops would do this with low FDR.

FREEC can do that. http://bioinfo-out.curie.fr/projects/freec/
