Abstract
Computational techniques are disclosed for using methylation profiles to classify the medication condition of a person. Initial sequence data is obtained containing sequences of an initial set of nucleic acids from a biological sample of a person. The initial sequence data is filtered to generate filtered sequence data that describes sequences of a filtered subset of nucleic acids from the biological sample. A methylation profile is determined for the filtered subset of nucleic acids from the biological sample. The methylation profile can be processed to determine a likelihood that the person has the specified medical condition. The system outputs an indication of the likelihood that the person has the specified medical condition.
