Direct targeted sequencing (DTS) methods and a hidden Markov model (HMM) can be used to call the copy number of a segment of interest within a region of interest. Described herein are methods for calling a copy number variant or a copy number variant abnormality using an HMM, and methods for determining a copy number based on a copy number likelihood model, in a test sequencing library that has be sequenced using DTS methods. Also described herein are methods for determining a copy number of a segment, including accounting for spurious capture probes that may arise from the DTS methods.
