title: New constructions of one- and two-stage pooling designs.
abstract: The study of gene functions requires a DNA library of high quality, such a library is obtained from a large mount of testing and screening. Pooling design is a very helpful tool for reducing the number of tests for DNA library screening. In this paper, we present new one- and two-stage pooling designs, together with new probabilistic pooling designs. The approach in this paper works for both error-free and error-tolerance scenarios.
