Playing Musical Chairs in Big Data to Reveal Variables’ Associations

2016-06-05

Abstract excerpt

Testing for associations in big data faces the problem of multiple comparisons, with true signals buried inside the noise of all associations queried. This is particularly true in genetic association studies where a substantial proportion of the variation of human phenotypes is driven by numerous genetic variants of small effect.
