Example sentences for: false-positive

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

False-positive 'hits' and missed false-negative identifications of nuclei were counted.
The average difference (signal) is proportional to mRNA abundance [ 15] and the average difference change is the difference between the signal intensity for a probe set on chip 1 and the signal intensity for that same probe set on chip 2. Raising the average difference-change threshold to 200, which corresponds to about 3-5 copies of the mRNA transcript per cell on average [ 16], yielded 11 genes scored as differentially expressed, producing a very low false-positive rate of less than 0.2%.
For instance, considering the intersection (or union) of genes predicted by either method would minimize the false-positive (or false-negative) rates.
Reviewing the terms and literature that prompted the definition of relationships among genes can easily identify false-positive associations.
To maintain the low false-positive rate obtained with the combination of qualitative and quantitative criteria (approximately 0.6%) using only the quantitative fold change and average difference change criteria, the thresholds would have to be set very high (for example, fold change greater than ten and average difference change greater than 200).
