POOL TEST RESULT VERIFICATION METHOD AND APPARATUS

摘要

Provided are a method and apparatus for verifying pool test result. The method includes receiving pool test result data obtained by performing a pool test on a plurality of pools configured based on a two-dimensional (2D) matrix, the pool test result data including allele frequencies of the plurality of pools, extracting a pool-specific variant from the matrix using the allele frequencies determining whether there is an intersecting pool among pools intersecting, in the matrix, a pool showing the pool-specific variant and determining whether the pool test result data is erroneous based on results of the determining whether there is an intersecting pool.

1. A pool test result verification method, comprising:
receiving pool test result data obtained by performing a pool test on a plurality of pools, the plurality of pools being arranged based on a two-dimensional (2D) matrix having a plurality of rows and a plurality of columns, the pool test result data including allele frequencies of the plurality of pools; extracting a pool-specific variant from the matrix using the allele frequencies, the pool-specific variant being one of a row pool-specific variant associated with only one row of the plurality of rows, or a column pool-specific variant associated with only one column of the plurality of columns; identifying a positive pool which reacts positively with the pool-specific variant; determining whether a positive intersecting pool exists, wherein the positive intersecting pool reacts positively with the pool-specific variant and intersects in the matrix with the positive pool; and determining whether the pool test result data is erroneous based on results of the determining whether the positive intersecting pool exists.
