In a context of multiple hypothesis testing, we provide several new exact calculations related to the false discovery proportion (FDP) of step-up and step-down procedures. For step-up procedures, we show that the number of erroneous…

Modern applications of conformal inference to multiple testing problems, such as outlier detection and candidate selection, often involve selecting test samples whose conformal p-values fall below a threshold. The quality of such methods is…

Many statistical problems can be addressed by applying a multiple testing procedure (MTP) that controls either the Family-wise Error Rate (FWER) or False Discovery Rate (FDR) under unknown arbitrarily-interdependent $p$-values, without…

In multiple hypotheses testing it has become widely popular to make inference on the true discovery proportion (TDP) of a set $\mathcal{M}$ of null hypotheses. This approach is useful for several application fields, such as neuroimaging and…

In the setting of multiple testing, compound p-values generalize p-values by asking for superuniformity to hold only \emph{on average} across all true nulls. We study the properties of the Benjamini--Hochberg procedure applied to compound…
