Example sentences for: false-negative

How can you use “false-negative” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

  • Inference of our false-positive prediction and false-negative verification rates (based on our ability to identify known miRNAs and detect the expression of highly conserved, and thus presumed genuine, novel miRNAs) leads us to estimate that drosophilid genomes contain around 110 miRNA genes, or nearly 1% of the number of predicted protein-coding genes.

  • For instance, considering the intersection (or union) of genes predicted by either method would minimize the false-positive (or false-negative) rates.

  • Optimal statistical power (minimal false-negative rate) is ensured when using a likelihood-ratio test statistic, as demonstrated by the Pearson-Neyman Theorem [ 28].

  • The cloning process might generate false-positive or false-negative results because of the cloned sequences being recognized out of the context of the surrounding genomic sequences.

  • False-positive 'hits' and missed false-negative identifications of nuclei were counted.
