In one exemplary embodiment, a computer-implemented method for determining a genetic result from a biological sample is provided. The method includes receiving nucleic acid amplification data of a biological sample, by a processor, from a biological instrument. The method further includes storing translation data, in a memory. The translation data includes a pattern of assay values associated with possible genetic results. The method further includes comparing the translation data with the nucleic acid amplification data, by the processor, to generate the genetic result of the biological sample. Moreover, the method includes displaying the genetic result, on a display, to a user.
