Abstract(s)

The use of three-dimensional array-based testing algorithms is more efficient and accurate in some situations than other more commonly used algorithms to protocol pooled samples testing. We evaluate the advantages of using of this complex pooling schemes with only one stage in the problem of estimation of the prevalence rate of some disease. Using simulation work, we show that it does not seem to exist any advantage in using three or even higher-dimensional arrays for this type of problem.
