Controlling the False-discovery Rate in Astrophysical Data Analysis
The false-discovery rate (FDR) is a new statistical procedure to control the number of mistakes made when performing multiple hypothesis tests, i.e., when comparing many data against a given model hypothesis. The key advantage of FDR is that it allows one to a priori control the average fraction of false rejections made (when comparing with the null hypothesis) over the total number of rejectio...
متن کاملControlling the False Discovery Rate 1
A great upsurge in research has taken place during the last decade or so in the area of multiple testing due to its increased relevance in modern scientific investigations. A major portion of this research has been devoted to developing methods that control error rates more meaningful as well as powerful than traditional ones in the context of these investigations. The error rates measuring fal...
متن کاملThe False Discovery Rate in Simultaneous Fisher and Adjusted Permutation Hypothesis Testing on Microarray Data
Background and Objectives: In recent years, new technologies have led to produce a large amount of data and in the field of biology, microarray technology has also dramatically developed. Meanwhile, the Fisher test is used to compare the control group with two or more experimental groups and also to detect the differentially expressed genes. In this study, the false discovery rate was investiga...

متن کاملProcedures controlling generalized false discovery rate
Procedures controlling error rates measuring at least k false rejections, instead of at least one, can potentially increase the ability of a procedure to detect false null hypotheses in situations where one seeks to control k or more false rejections having tolerated a few of them. The k-FWER, which is the probability of at least k false rejections and generalizes the usual familywise error rat...
