Simultaneously testing a collection of null hypotheses about a data generating distribution based on a sample of independent and identically distributed observations is a fundamental and important statistical problem involving many applications. In this article we propose a new re-sampling based...

This article shows that any single-step or stepwise multiple testing procedure (asymptotically) controlling the family-wise error rate (FWER) can be augmented into procedures that (asymptotically) control tail probabilities for the number of false positives and the proportion of false positives...

We outline a method of sample size calculation in microarray experiments on the basis of pilot data and illustrate its practical application with both simulated and real data. The method was shown to be consistent (as the number of `probed genes' tends to infinity) under general conditions in an...

Liquid Chromatography - Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS) is a powerful method for sensitive detection and quantification of proteins and peptides in complex biological fluids like serum. LC-MS produces complex data sets, consisting of some hundreds of millions of data points per sample at a resolution...

Multiple testing procedures are commonly used in gene expression studies for the detection of differential expression, where typically thousands of genes are measured over at least two experimental conditions. Given the need for powerful testing procedures, and the attendant danger of false...

It is a common practice to use resampling methods such as the bootstrap for calculating the p-value for each test when performing large scale multiple testing. The precision of the bootstrap p-values and that of the false discovery rate (FDR) relies on the number of bootstraps used for testing...

For situations where the number of tested hypotheses is increasingly large, the power to detect statistically significant multiple treatment effects decreases. As is the case with microarray technology, often researchers are interested in identifying differentially expressed genes for more than...

The methodological advancement in microarray data analysis on the basis of false discovery rate (FDR) control, such as the q-value plots, allows the investigator to examine the FDR from several perspectives. However, when FDR control at the ``customary" levels 0.01, 0.05, or 0.1 does not provide...
