\description{
\code{validation} segment and smooth perform ratio values in Package `CNAnorm' 
}

\usage{
\S4method{validation}{CNAnorm}(object, peaks = sugg.peaks(object), 
    ploidy = sugg.ploidy(object))
}

\arguments{
 
\item{object}{An object of Class \code{"CNAnorm"}}
\item{peaks}{The user validated location (ratio Test/Normal) of the peaks before normalization.}
\item{ploidy}{The user validated ploidy of the peaks before normalization.}
        
}

\value{An object of class \code{"CNAnorm"}}
