Control procedures and estimators of the false discovery rate and their application in low-dimensional settings: an empirical investigation.

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: When many (up to millions) of statistical tests are conducted in discovery set analyses such as genome-wide association studies (GWAS), approaches controlling family-wise error rate (FWER) or false discovery rate (FDR) are required to reduce the number of false positive decisions. Some methods were specifically developed in the context of high-dimensional settings and partially rely on the estimation...
