    The false positive rate (FPR) is the proportion of all negatives that still yield positive test outcomes, i.e., the conditional probability of a positive test result given an event that was not present. The false positive rate is equal to the significance level. The specificity of the test is equal to 1 minus the false positive rate.

  3. Type I and type II errors - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Type_I_and_type_II_errors

    The probability of type I errors is called the "false reject rate" (FRR) or false non-match rate (FNMR), while the probability of type II errors is called the "false accept rate" (FAR) or false match rate (FMR). If the system is designed to rarely match suspects then the probability of type II errors can be called the "false alarm rate". On the ...

    The rapid plasma reagin test (RPR test or RPR titer) is a type of rapid diagnostic test that looks for non-specific antibodies in the blood of the patient that may indicate an infection by syphilis or related non-venereal treponematoses. It is one of several nontreponemal tests for syphilis (along with the Wassermann test and the VDRL test).

    False negative (FN) = 10 (2030 × 1.48% × (100% − 67%)) ... False positive rate (FPR), fall-out, probability of false alarm = FP / AN = 180 / 2000 = 9.0%.

    An estimate of d′ can be also found from measurements of the hit rate and false-alarm rate. It is calculated as: d′ = Z(hit rate) − Z(false alarm rate), [15] where function Z(p), p ∈ [0, 1], is the inverse of the cumulative Gaussian distribution. d′ is a dimensionless statistic. A higher d′ indicates that the signal can be more ...

    However, one study found that the false-negative rate can be as high as 20 percent when a person is tested five days after developing symptoms. It's much higher — nearly 100 percent — when ...

  8. False positive rate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/False_positive_rate

    The false positive rate is = +. where is the number of false positives, is the number of true negatives and = + is the total number of ground truth negatives.. The significance level used to test each hypothesis is set based on the form of inference (simultaneous inference vs. selective inference) and its supporting criteria (for example FWER or FDR), that were pre-determined by the researcher.
