Figure 3. Consider an infinite universe of chambers.

Figure 3

A digital array panel is a finite sampling of this universe. The goal is to determine λ, the mean number of the target molecules per chamber in the DNA sample. The number of positive chambers, which have hits of one or more molecules, shown as filled green squares in the panel with C( = 765) chambers is H.
