    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/False_positive_rate

    In statistics, when performing multiple comparisons, a false positive ratio (also known as fall-out or false alarm rate [1]) is the probability of falsely rejecting the null hypothesis for a particular test. The false positive rate is calculated as the ratio between the number of negative events wrongly categorized as positive (false positives ...
