The European Union standard has set a minimum detection rate of 1.5 times the underlying incidence at second and subsequent screens (The European Commission, 2001).
In the UK, the NHS breast screening programme stipulates a minimum detection rate of invasive tumours of 3.6 per 1000 at prevalence (first) screen and 4 per 1000 at incidence (second or subsequent) screen (NHS Breast Screening Review, 2003).
Some organisations stipulate an absolute minimum detection rate, others a minimum rate proportional to the underlying incidence (i.e., the incidence one would expect if screening were not taking place).
We also suggest that three figures might be stipulated in monitoring of screening programmes: a minimum standard, corresponding to our minimum detection rate, a desirable standard to aim at, corresponding to our expected rate, and a maximum, above which further investigation would take place.

Our minimum detection rates differ only slightly from existing ones, being around 10% higher.
Minimum detection rates at screening are sometimes laid down as standards for breast cancer screening programmes, based on underlying incidence of the disease in the age group screened.
Considering that the performance at zero Hamming distance threshold indeed pinpoints the minimum FAR and detection rate value on the receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC), optimizing such point in (15) essentially provides a maximum lower bound for the ROC curve.
The screening prevalence was 2.4 times the annual incidence and a minimum estimate for the detection rate among those invited was 1.6 times that among those not invited.
We use two well-known metrics in evaluating the performance, namely, equal error rate (EER) and minimum detection cost (MinDCF).
Results that indicate improved performance of the proposed approach, which is able to produce 70% detection rate at a minimum offset of 0.2, have been shown.
Selected types of OBT samples such as rice, corn, rapeseed, fresh lettuce and pork were analyzed for method validation of recovery rate reproducibility, the minimum detection concentration, and the uncertainty for typical low level environmental sample was evaluated.
