稀疏序列多重检验的精确边界AI 解读

This work investigates multiple testing by considering minimax separation rates in the sparse sequence model, when the testing risk is measured as the sum FDR+FNR (False Discovery Rate plus False Negative Rate). First, using the popular beta-min separation condition, with all nonzero signals separated from 0 by at least some amount, we determine the sharp minimax testing risk asymptotically and thereby explicitly describe the transition from “achievable multiple testing with…

尖峰与厚尾经验贝叶斯多重检验AI 解读

This paper explores a connection between empirical Bayes posterior distributions and false discovery rate (FDR) control. In the Gaussian sequence model this work shows that empirical Bayes-calibrated spike and slab posterior distributions allow a correct FDR control under sparsity. Doing so, it offers a frequentist theoretical validation of empirical Bayes methods in the context of multiple testing. Our theoretical results are illustrated with numerical experiments.
