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

A PSI-BLAST search was initiated with the conserved N-terminal extension of the SGC (human SGC1β, gi: 4504215, region 1-360), using an inclusion threshold of .01, and compositional bias based statistics to eliminate false positives arising due to peculiarities of sequence composition.
The tradeoff can be chosen by an investigator based upon the relative cost of false positives and value of detecting differences in genes expressed at low levels.
We now show that fold-difference alone results in a high degree of error whilst detecting regulated genes from microarrays, replicate arrays with statistical analysis reduces false positives and negatives.
This property was exploited to estimate and correct for the level of hybridization contributed by non-specific binding, enabling the selection of optimal oligodeoxyribonucleotides and the reduction of false positives in exon identification.
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.
