Yes, you can generate your own reference model files for copy number analysis. A user-generated reference set may better account for laboratory bias and may therefore improve resolution. Reference sets should contain at least 44 samples. To obtain good data on the X and Y chromosomes, you should use a minimum of 15 files from female samples and 15 files from male samples to generate the reference model file.
