If he infers that she is interested when she is in fact not interested, then he has made an error of false positive (what the statisticians call the "Type I" error).

如果他推断说，她感兴趣，而她其实上不感兴趣，那么他犯了假阳性的错误(统计人员所谓的“第一类”错误)。

Then simulation results express this method has better detection rate, overall accuracy and false positive rate reduced with less training sample size.

仿真实验结果看出，该方法在训练样本数相对较少的情况下，仍然具有较高的检测率和正确率，同时也具有较低的虚警率。

Among these techniques, the suppression subtractive hybridization (SSH) method has been shown to be quick and highly efficient, and it generates less false-positive clones.

在这些技术当中，抑制消减杂交(SSH)具有快速、高效、假阳性率低等特点。

Mark Monitor's Fred Felman says that his group targets more than 500 sites in a typical week and has never had a "false positive, "--in other words, has never mistaken a legitimate site for a phisher.

If one in 1, 000 people have a disease and the false-positive rate for a test is 5%, then the probability that a person testing positive has the disease is at most 2%.
