Example sentences for: fpr

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

  • Because the underlying prevalence of cancer is so low in average risk populations, for acceptable cancer screening of asymptomatic people, the FPR should be very small [ 9 ] . As a starting point we recommend basing guidelines for FPR and TPR on the FPR and TPR for mammography, which, as discussed below, is FPR=.

  • If a positive biomarker is unlikely to trigger additional diagnostic work-ups prior to biopsy, a higher FPR might be acceptable.

  • Therefore the target FPR is based on the more restricted definition of FPR in mammography.

  • Much larger odds ratio are needed from early detection tests for useful application in the screening setting [ 13 ] . For example, for the target values of FPR = .01 and TPR = .80, the odds ratio equals (TPR × (1-FPR)/ ((1-TPR) × FPR) = 396, as in Table 1.

  • Because FPR is so small, we do not use a normal approximation.
