How can I call somatic CNV in tumor and matched normal sample

I am currently doing some exome analysis on Somatic samples where I am trying to do copy number analysis on tumor and matched normal samples (.bam) for. Can I know how to proceed with copy number analysis with with specific tools?

tumor normal somatic-cnv

Depends on what the data actually is. Put a bit more effort into your question to provide the information we need to actually give an answer that might be correct.

Apologies! I’ve revised the question

I've always had decent results with cnvkit without too much messing around with parameters. Control-FREEC and ascat are other accessible options.

Read the documentation for examples, they are pretty simple to set up for your scenario.
