Abstract

Disclosed herein are methods and systems for correcting errors in sample amplification, including the errors occurred in determining the number of targets in samples. In some embodiments, the method comprises: stochastically barcoding a plurality of targets in the samples using oligonucleotides comprising stochastic barcodes to generate stochastically barcoded targets; contacting one or more defined barcoded primers with each of the one or more samples; and determining an amplification noise.
