Snippet: Once the sample has been pre-processed, there are two further problems that could arise once we partition the sample into multiple group test measurements. One possible outcome is a false negative, meaning not enough genetic material from a sick patient and, therefore, insufficient amplification. It is also possible to have a false positive, meaning the sample was contaminated by viral matter, and the test is positive although the patient is heal.....
Document: Once the sample has been pre-processed, there are two further problems that could arise once we partition the sample into multiple group test measurements. One possible outcome is a false negative, meaning not enough genetic material from a sick patient and, therefore, insufficient amplification. It is also possible to have a false positive, meaning the sample was contaminated by viral matter, and the test is positive although the patient is healthy. We focus on these two problems, as a well-designed group testing procedure mitigates their effects.
