We consider a generalization of group testing where the potentially contaminated sets are the members of a given hypergraph ${\cal F}=(V,E)$. This generalization finds application in contexts where contaminations can be conditioned by some…
The group testing problem is concerned with identifying a small number $k \sim n^\theta$ for $\theta \in (0,1)$ of infected individuals in a large population of size $n$. At our disposal is a testing procedure that allows us to test groups…
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…
The goal of threshold group testing is to identify up to $d$ defective items among a population of $n$ items, where $d$ is usually much smaller than $n$. A test is positive if it has at least $u$ defective items and negative otherwise. Our…
This paper considers the problem of Quantitative Group Testing (QGT). Consider a set of $N$ items among which $K$ items are defective. The QGT problem is to identify (all or a sufficiently large fraction of) the defective items, where the…
The group testing problem consists of determining a small set of defective items from a larger set of items based on tests on groups of items, and is relevant in applications such as medical testing, communication protocols, pattern…
Group testing is an efficient method for testing a large population to detect infected individuals. In this paper, we consider an efficient adaptive two stage group testing scheme. Using a straightforward analysis, we characterize the…
We explore a multiple-stage variant of the min-max robust selection problem with budgeted uncertainty that includes queries. First, one queries a subset of items and gets the exact values of their uncertain parameters. Given this…
Testing efficiently whether a finite set with a binary operation over it, given as an oracle, is a group is a well-known open problem in the field of property testing. Recently, Friedl, Ivanyos and Santha have made a significant step in the…
Group testing is a well-known search problem that consists in detecting of $s$ defective members of a set of $t$ samples by carrying out tests on properly chosen subsets of samples. In classical group testing the goal is to find all…
The notion that cooperation can aid a group of agents to solve problems more efficiently than if those agents worked in isolation is prevalent, despite the little quantitative groundwork to support it. Here we consider a primordial form of…
We describe a generalization of the group testing problem termed symmetric group testing. Unlike in classical binary group testing, the roles played by the input symbols zero and one are "symmetric" while the outputs are drawn from a…
In combinatorial group testing problems Questioner needs to find a defective element $x\in [n]$ by testing subsets of $[n]$. In [18] the authors introduced a new model, where each element knows the answer for those queries that contain it…
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…
We initiate a systematic investigation of distribution testing in the framework of algorithmic replicability. Specifically, given independent samples from a collection of probability distributions, the goal is to characterize the sample…
The investigation of input-output systems often requires a sophisticated choice of test inputs to make best use of limited experimental time. Here we present an iterative algorithm that continuously adjusts an ensemble of test inputs…
We consider the group testing problem, in which one seeks to identify a subset of defective items within a larger set of items based on a number of noisy tests. While matching achievability and converse bounds are known in several cases of…
We study the problem of testing discrete distributions with a focus on the high probability regime. Specifically, given samples from one or more discrete distributions, a property $\mathcal{P}$, and parameters $0< \epsilon, \delta <1$, we…
We consider a cooperative learning scenario where a collection of networked agents with individually owned classifiers dynamically update their predictions, for the same classification task, through communication or observations of each…
Adaptive online testing efficiently assesses examinee proficiency by dynamically adjusting the difficulty of test items based on their performance. To achieve this, items are selected so that their difficulty closely matches the test…
