False Discovery Rate Smoothing
错误发现率平滑
We present false discovery rate (FDR) smoothing, an empirical-Bayes method for exploiting spatial structure in large multiple-testing problems. FDR smoothing automatically finds spatially localized regions of significant test statistics. It then relaxes the threshold of statistical significance within these regions, and tightens it elsewhere, in a manner that controls the overall false discovery rate at a given level. This results in increased power and cleaner spatial…
