通过对称化数据聚合控制一般依赖下的错误发现率AI 解读

We develop a new class of distribution-free multiple testing rules for false discovery rate (FDR) control under general dependence. A key element in our proposal is a symmetrized data aggregation (SDA) approach to incorporating the dependence structure via sample splitting, data screening, and information pooling. The proposed SDA filter first constructs a sequence of ranking statistics that fulfill global symmetry properties, and then chooses a data-driven threshold along…

卡方数据的经验贝叶斯方法AI 解读

In a thought-provoking paper, Efron investigated the merit and limitation of an empirical Bayes method to correct selection bias based on Tweedie’s formula first reported in the study by Robbins. The exceptional virtue of Tweedie’s formula for the normal distribution lies in its representation of selection bias as a simple function of the derivative of log marginal likelihood. Since the marginal likelihood and its derivative can be estimated from the data directly without…

因子调整的多重检验程序及其共同基金筛选应用AI 解读

In this article, we propose a factor-adjusted multiple testing (FAT) procedure based on factor-adjusted p-values in a linear factor model involving some observable and unobservable factors, for the purpose of selecting skilled funds in empirical finance. The factor-adjusted p-values were obtained after extracting the latent common factors by the principal component method. Under some mild conditions, the false discovery proportion can be consistently estimated even if the…

单指标调制的多重检验AI 解读

In the context of large-scale multiple testing, hypotheses are often accompanied with certain prior information. In this paper, we present a single-index modulated (SIM) multiple testing procedure, which maintains control of the false discovery rate while incorporating prior information, by assuming the availability of a bivariate $p$-value, $(p_{1},p_{2})$, for each hypothesis, where $p_{1}$ is a preliminary $p$-value from prior information and $p_{2}$ is the primary $p$-val…
