False Non-Match Rate (FNMR)

FRT & privacy

The FRT performance metric measuring how often the system fails to detect a person who IS on the watchlist. High FNMR means self-excluded patrons walk past the door unnoticed — defeating the self-exclusion scheme's purpose. The paired counterpart to FMR; tuning the match threshold trades the two. Vendor selection should require published FNMR figures.

This term sits in the FRT & privacy section of the working glossary — vocabulary covering facial-recognition controls and the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth), including the Australian Privacy Principles and the Notifiable Data Breaches scheme.
