DNA methylation from cell-free DNA (cfDNA) can be profiled using whole genome bisulfite sequencing (WGBS). Here, the authors develop a computational method, FinaleMe, that predicts DNA methylation and tissues of-origin in cfDNA and validate its performance using paired deep and shallow-coverage whole-genome sequencing (WGS) and WGBS data.
