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 the problem of group testing (pooled testing), first introduced by Dorfman. For non-adaptive testing strategies, we refer to a non-defective item as `intruding' if it only appears in positive tests. Such items cause…
