We modify Dorfman's and Sterrett's group testing protocols to make them suitable for testing blood samples for the presence of HIV antibodies, as well as for many industrial applications, when false negatives cannot be tolerated. We ΓΏrst propose that test kit sensitivity be increased to nearly 100 p

## Abstract We consider asymptotic behavior of selfβnormalized sums of autoregressive fractionally integrated moving average (ARFIMA) processes whose innovations are GARCH errors. The asymptotic distribution of the sums is derived under very mild conditions. Applications to unit root tests with ARF
## Abstract Genotyping errors can create a problem for the analysis of caseβparents data because some families will exhibit genotypes that are inconsistent with Mendelian inheritance. The problem with correcting Mendelian inconsistent genotype errors by regenotyping or removing families in which th
The APTIMA V R HPV Assay (AHPV) allows detection of 14 high-risk human papillomavirus (HPV) RNA types in cervical specimens. Until present, the assay has been compared to HPV DNA tests only in triage settings. Herein, we compare AHPV with a DNA assay (Hybrid Capture V R 2; HC2) and liquid-based cyto
