Abstract:Group testing is an efficient algorithmic approach to the infection identification problem, based on mixing the test samples and testing the mixed samples instead of individually testing each sample. In this paper, we consider the dynamic infection spread model that is based on the discrete SIR model, which assumes the disease to be spread over time via infected and non-isolated individuals. In our system, the main objective is not to minimize the number of required tests to identify every infection, but inste… Show more
