A classical approach for dealing with the multiple testing problem is to restrict attention to procedures that control the familywise error rate (FWER), the probability of at least one false rejection. In many applications, one might be…
Correlated observations are ubiquitous phenomena in a plethora of scientific avenues. Tackling this dependence among test statistics has been one of the pertinent problems in simultaneous inference. However, very little literature exists…
When simultaneously testing multiple hypotheses, the usual approach in the context of confirmatory clinical trials is to control the familywise error rate (FWER), which bounds the probability of making at least one false rejection. In many…
In many applications of multiple hypothesis testing where more than one false rejection can be tolerated, procedures controlling error rates measuring at least $k$ false rejections, instead of at least one, for some fixed $k\ge 1$ can…
In online multiple testing, an a priori unknown number of hypotheses are tested sequentially, i.e. at each time point a test decision for the current hypothesis has to be made using only the data available so far. Although many powerful…
Consider the problem of testing $s$ hypotheses simultaneously. The usual approach restricts attention to procedures that control the probability of even one false rejection, the familywise error rate (FWER). If $s$ is large, one might be…
We propose a method for multiple hypothesis testing with familywise error rate (FWER) control, called the i-FWER test. Most testing methods are predefined algorithms that do not allow modifications after observing the data. However, in…
Consider the problem of simultaneously testing null hypotheses H_1,...,H_s. The usual approach to dealing with the multiplicity problem is to restrict attention to procedures that control the familywise error rate (FWER), the probability of…
We consider clinical trials with multiple, overlapping patient populations, that test multiple treatment policies specifically tailored to these populations. Such designs may lead to multiplicity issues, as false statements will affect…
In a multiple testing problem where one is willing to tolerate a few false rejections, procedure controlling the familywise error rate (FWER) can potentially be improved in terms of its ability to detect false null hypotheses by…
Familywise error rate (FWER) has been a cornerstone in simultaneous inference for decades, and the classical Bonferroni method has been one of the most prominent frequentist approaches for controlling FWER. The present article studies the…
The $\gamma$-FDP and $k$-FWER multiple testing error metrics, which are tail probabilities of the respective error statistics, have become popular recently as less-stringent alternatives to the FDR and FWER. We propose general and flexible…
In this paper, we consider the problem of simultaneously testing many two-sided hypotheses when rejections of null hypotheses are accompanied by claims of the direction of the alternative. The fundamental goal is to construct methods that…
We propose a simple single-step multiple testing procedure that asymptotically controls the family-wise error rate (FWER) at the desired level exactly under the equicorrelated multivariate Gaussian setup. The method is shown to be…
Biological research often involves testing a growing number of null hypotheses as new data is accumulated over time. We study the problem of online control of the familywise error rate (FWER), that is testing an apriori unbounded sequence…
The problem of multiple hypothesis testing arises when there are more than one hypothesis to be tested simultaneously for statistical significance. This is a very common situation in many data mining applications. For instance, assessing…
In genome-wide association (GWA) studies the goal is to detect association between one or more genetic markers and a given phenotype. The number of genetic markers in a GWA study can be in the order hundreds of thousands and therefore…
We present a unifying approach to multiple testing procedures for sequential (or streaming) data by giving sufficient conditions for a sequential multiple testing procedure to control the familywise error rate (FWER), extending to the…
Testing multiple hypotheses of conditional independence with provable error rate control is a fundamental problem with various applications. To infer conditional independence with family-wise error rate (FWER) control when only summary…
We present a novel method for controlling the $k$-familywise error rate ($k$-FWER) in the linear regression setting using the knockoffs framework first introduced by Barber and Cand\`es. Our procedure, which we also refer to as knockoffs,…
