Using RT-PCR as the standard criterion, we found that VecTest results included three false positives, yielding a false-positive rate of 75%.
Other applications of this model include the analysis of false discovery rates (FDRs) in microarray data to model the number of false rejections, yielding a less biased FDR estimator than the empirical estimator following a binomial distribution (Hunt et al., 2009).
Leeds BD-QoL is a composed of 30 items, answered true (1) or false (0), yielding a score ranging from 0 to 30 [ 5].
A tissue-specific gene-ranking system was developed to stratify thousands of miRNA target-genes, removing false positives, yielding a weighted inhibitor score, which integrated the net impact of both up- and down-regulated miRNAs.
At this stage a thorough verification procedure, yielding false negative and false positive rates of the screening, justifies the effort of a psychiatric assessment of all participants.
On the one hand, this will increase the chance of false overlap with the geological event in question, potentially yielding false positive results.
The GPs in our study described feeling that it was important for men to understand the imprecise nature of the PSA test, and, without exception, they reported having discussed the possibility of the PSA test yielding false-positive and false-negative results.
But the device can be unreliable, yielding false positives when wearers eat foods that cause their bodies to create their own alcohol.
Furthermore, the colorimetric methods used to evaluate ROS production and damage are confounded by interactions between nC 60 and the reagents, yielding false positives.
Small-molecule aggregation is thus a major cause of non-specific inhibition, often yielding false positives in early-stage drug-discovery campaigns.
Williams' argument would thus be easily defeated by the exhibition of a possible world in which inductive reasoning did not work (in the sense of mostly yielding false conclusions).
