We present a novel necessary and sufficient principle for False Discovery Rate (FDR) control. This e-Partitioning Principle says that a procedure controls FDR if and only if it is a special case of a general e-Partitioning procedure. By…

We consider the problem of variable selection in high-dimensional statistical models where the goal is to report a set of variables, out of many predictors $X_1, \dotsc, X_p$, that are relevant to a response of interest. For linear…

In hypothesis testing, a false discovery occurs when a hypothesis is incorrectly rejected due to noise in the sample. When adaptively testing multiple hypotheses, the probability of a false discovery increases as more tests are performed.…
