Quantitative trait Loci analysis using the false discovery rate.
False discovery rate control has become an essential tool in any study that has a very large multiplicity problem. False discovery rate-controlling procedures have also been found to be very effective in QTL analysis, ensuring reproducible results with few falsely discovered linkages and offering increased power to discover QTL, although their acceptance has been slower than in microarray analy...
متن کاملEmpirical Bayes methods for controlling the false discovery rate with dependent data
False discovery rate (FDR) has been widely used as an error measure in large scale multiple testing problems, but most research in the area has been focused on procedures for controlling the FDR based on independent test statistics or the properties of such procedures for test statistics with certain types of stochastic dependence. Based on an approach proposed in Tang and Zhang (2005), we furt...
متن کاملControlling False Discoveries in Mapping Multiple Phenotypes
The genetic basis of multiple phenotypes such as gene expression, metabolite levels, or imaging features is often investigated by testing a large collection of hypotheses, probing the existence of association between each of the traits and hundred of thousands of genotyped variants. Appropriate multiplicity adjustment is crucial to guarantee replicability of findings, and False Discovery Rate (...
متن کاملWeighted false discovery rate controlling procedures for clinical trials
SummaryHaving identified that the lack of replicability of results in earlier phases of clinical medical research stems largely from unattended selective inference, we offer a new hierarchical weighted false discovery rate controlling testing procedure alongside the single-level weighted procedure. These address the special structure of clinical research, where the comparisons of treatments inv...
متن کاملOptimal likelihood-ratio multiple testing with application to Alzheimer’s disease and questionable dementia
BACKGROUND Controlling the false discovery rate is important when testing multiple hypotheses. To enhance the detection capability of a false discovery rate control test, we applied the likelihood ratio-based multiple testing method in neuroimage data and compared the performance with the existing methods. METHODS We analysed the performance of the likelihood ratio-based false discovery rate ...
