The proposed Debiased Robust Lasso Test Method (DRLT) addresses the limitations of existing group testing (GT) algorithms by handling group membership specification errors. This new method combines debiasing techniques with Lasso regression to provide accurate defect status recovery, even in the presence of errors. DRLT is shown to outperform baseline and robust regression techniques for identifying defective samples and erroneous groups.
Low GrooveSquid.com (original content) Low Difficulty Summary
Group testing aims to identify defective samples by mixing them into groups. However, existing methods assume perfect group membership specification. This new method handles such errors by debiasing estimates produced by Lasso regression. Two hypothesis tests are designed to identify defective samples and erroneous groups. Numerical results show that DRLT outperforms other approaches.
