James-Stein Estimation And The Benjamini-Hochberg Procedure, Debashis Ghosh
James-Stein Estimation And The Benjamini-Hochberg Procedure, Debashis Ghosh
Debashis Ghosh
For the problem of multiple testing, the Benjamini-Hochberg (B-H) procedure has become a very popular method in applications. Based on a spacings theory representation of the B-H procedure, we are able to motivate the use of shrinkage estimators for modifying the B-H procedure. Several generalizations in the paper are discussed, and the methodology is applied to real and simulated datasets.

Generalized Benjamini-Hochberg Procedures Using Spacings, Debashis Ghosh
Debashis Ghosh
For the problem of multiple testing, the Benjamini-Hochberg (B-H) procedure has become a very popular method in applications. We show how the B-H procedure can be interpreted as a test based on the spacings corresponding to the p-value distributions. Using this equivalence, we develop a class of generalized B-H procedures that maintain control of the false discovery rate in finite-samples. We also consider the effect of correlation on the procedure; simulation studies are used to illustrate the methodology.

Discrete Nonparametric Algorithms For Outlier Detection With Genomic Data, Debashis Ghosh
Debashis Ghosh
In high-throughput studies involving genetic data such as from gene expression mi- croarrays, dierential expression analysis between two or more experimental conditions has been a very common analytical task. Much of the resulting literature on multiple comparisons has paid relatively little attention to the choice of test statistic. In this article, we focus on the issue of choice of test statistic based on a special pattern of dierential expression. The approach here is based on recasting multiple comparisons procedures for assessing outlying expression values. A major complication is that the resulting p-values are discrete; some theoretical properties of sequential testing …

Detecting Outlier Genes From High-Dimensional Data: A Fuzzy Approach, Debashis Ghosh
Debashis Ghosh
A recent nding in cancer research has been the characterization of previously undis- covered chromosomal abnormalities in several types of solid tumors. This was found based on analyses of high-throughput data from gene expression microarrays and motivated the development of so-called `outlier' tests for dierential expression. One statistical issue was the potential discreteness of the test statistics. Using ideas from fuzzy set theory, we develop fuzzy outlier detection algorithms that have links to ideas in multiple comparisons. Two- and K-sample extensions are considered. The methodology is illustrated by application to two microarray studies.
