Of the remaining candidates, around 36% may be genuine, although this rises to a maximum of approximately 62% if one considers the inferred false-negative rate of northern analysis.
For instance, considering the intersection (or union) of genes predicted by either method would minimize the false-positive (or false-negative) rates.
The false-positive rate is denoted α and false-negative rate β.
Similarly, we define the false-negative rate ( FN ) as the number of false negatives among the nonsignificant genes divided by the total number of genes, the true-positive rate ( TP ) as the number of true positives divided by the total number of genes, and, the true-negative rate ( TN ) as the number of true negatives divided by the total number of genes.
As we tested one or two probes for each candidate, a false-negative result will have been obtained if we tested either the incorrect arm or strand of a putative miRNA.
