Matt, I have had this problem on an iPhone after I replaced the screen. In my case it turned out that I had over tightened a screw when putting it back together, this caused a problem in that it periodically altered the charge that the screen detected from finger input by way of shorting or earthing the connection from the screen. It is worth sitting down for 30 minutes and re-doing the dis-assembly / re-assembly process to see if it cures the problem.
