Abstract
A method for determining false positives calls in a biological data plot is provided. The method includes identifying a first data cluster as non-amplification data points within the biological data plot and identifying a second data cluster as wild-type positives within the biological data plot. The method further includes estimating a position in the biological data plot of a center of the first and second data clusters. The method further includes determining, for each data point within the first data cluster, a probability of belonging to the first data cluster and determining, for each data point within the second data cluster, a probability of belonging to the second data cluster. The method includes applying a probability threshold for each data point within the first and second data cluster to identify false positives.
