In the pooled data problem, the goal is to identify the categories associated with a large collection of items via a sequence of pooled tests. Each pooled test reveals the number of items in the pool belonging to each category. A prominent…
We study the group testing problem with non-adaptive randomized algorithms. Several models have been discussed in the literature to determine how to randomly choose the tests. For a model ${\cal M}$, let $m_{\cal M}(n,d)$ be the minimum…
We consider the nonadaptive group testing with N items, of which $K = \Theta(N^\theta)$ are defective. We study a test design in which each item appears in nearly the same number of tests. For each item, we independently pick L tests…
We study the problem of group testing with a non-adaptive randomized algorithm in the random incidence design (RID) model where each entry in the test is chosen randomly independently from $\{0,1\}$ with a fixed probability $p$. The…
We consider the problem of quantitative group testing (QGT), where the goal is to recover a sparse binary vector from aggregate subset-sum queries: each query selects a subset of indices and returns the sum of those entries.…
Group testing is the process of pooling arbitrary subsets from a set of $n$ items so as to identify, with a minimal number of tests, a "small" subset of $d$ defective items. In "classical" non-adaptive group testing, it is known that when…
\emph{Group Testing} (GT) addresses the problem of identifying a small subset of defective items from a large population, by grouping items into as few test pools as possible. In \emph{Adaptive GT} (AGT), outcomes of previous tests can…
The problem of Group Testing is to identify defective items out of a set of objects by means of pool queries of the form "Does the pool contain at least a defective?". The aim is of course to perform detection with the fewest possible…
In this paper, we consider the problem of noiseless non-adaptive probabilistic group testing, in which the goal is high-probability recovery of the defective set. We show that in the case of $n$ items among which $k$ are defective, the…
In Group Testing, the objective is to identify $K$ defective items out of $N$, $K\ll N$, by testing pools of items together and using the least amount of tests possible. Recently, a fast decoding method based on binary splitting (Price and…
Group testing is a well known search problem that consists in detecting the defective members of a set of objects O by performing tests on properly chosen subsets (pools) of the given set O. In classical group testing the goal is to find…
In a \emph{group testing} scheme, a set of tests is designed to identify a small number $t$ of defective items among a large set (of size $N$) of items. In the non-adaptive scenario the set of tests has to be designed in one-shot. In this…
We consider the problem of non-adaptive group testing of $N$ items out of which $K$ or less items are known to be defective. We propose a testing scheme based on left-and-right-regular sparse-graph codes and a simple iterative decoder. We…
We consider nonadaptive group testing where each item is placed in a constant number of tests. The tests are chosen uniformly at random with replacement, so the testing matrix has (almost) constant column weights. We show that performance…
The group testing problem consists of determining a sparse subset of defective items from within a larger set of items via a series of tests, where each test outcome indicates whether at least one defective item is included in the test. We…
We consider non-adaptive threshold group testing for identification of up to $d$ defective items in a set of $n$ items, where a test is positive if it contains at least $2 \leq u \leq d$ defective items, and negative otherwise. The…
Given $d$ defective items in a population of $n$ items with $d \ll n$, in threshold group testing without gap, the outcome of a test on a subset of items is positive if the subset has at least $u$ defective items and negative otherwise,…
In the problem of classical group testing one aims to identify a small subset (of size $d$) diseased individuals/defective items in a large population (of size $n$). This process is based on a minimal number of suitably-designed group tests…
We study the group testing problem where the goal is to identify a set of k infected individuals carrying a rare disease within a population of size n, based on the outcomes of pooled tests which return positive whenever there is at least…
Up to date, only lower and upper bounds for the optimal configuration of a Square Array (A2) Group Testing (GT) algorithm are known. We establish exact analytical formulae and provide a couple of applications of our result. First, we…
