A Bayesian Decision-Theoretic Approach to Logically-Consistent Hypothesis Testing
This work addresses an important issue regarding the performance of simultaneous test procedures: the construction of multiple tests that at the same time are optimal from a statistical perspective and that also yield logically-consistent results that are easy to communicate to practitioners of statistical methods. For instance, if hypothesis A implies hypothesis B, is it possible to create opt...
متن کاملDI AGNOSTIC VAL UE OF SUBL INGUAL NITROGLYCERIN TILT TEST: COMPARISON WITH THE STANDARD ISOPROTERENOL TILT TEST
Sublingual nitroglycerin (TNG) has been introduced as a promising provocative agent for tilt table testing, but it has not been compared directly with the standard isoproterenol (ISO) infusion test previously. We tried to assess the diagnostic value and safety of TNG tilt testing as compared with ISO infusion in patients with unexplained syncope. TNG and ISO tilt tests were performed in tw...
متن کاملCrashMonkey: A Framework to Systematically Test File-System Crash Consistency
Modern file systems provide a set of mechanisms to ensure consistent recovery of the file system in the event of a computer crash. However, these mechanisms are complex and hard to implement correctly. Furthermore, these mechanisms are time consuming to test, leading to only a cursory set of crash consistency tests being run on new file systems and any patches submitted to existing file systems...
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 کاملOn"Strong control, conservative point estimation and simultaneous conservative consistency of false discovery rates": Does a large number of tests obviate confidence intervals of the FDR?
A previously proved theorem gives sufficient conditions for an estimator of the false discovery rate (FDR) to conservatively converge to the FDR with probability 1 as the number of hypothesis tests increases, even for small sample sizes. It does not follow that several thousand tests ensure that the estimator has moderate variance under those conditions. In fact, they can hold even if the test ...
