Specificity refers to the ability of a test or classifier to correctly identify true negative instances among all negative cases. In the context of biomedical signal classification and pattern recognition, high specificity indicates that a diagnostic tool is effective in ruling out diseases or conditions when they are not present, minimizing false positives. This is particularly important for ensuring accurate diagnoses and avoiding unnecessary treatments.
