qvalue
Q-value estimation for false discovery rate control
This package takes a list of p-values resulting from the
simultaneous testing of many hypotheses and estimates their
q-values. The q-value of a test measures the proportion of
false positives incurred (called the false discovery rate) when
that particular test is called significant. Various plots are
automatically generated, allowing one to make sensible
significance cut-offs. Several mathematical results have
recently been shown on the conservative accuracy of the
estimated q-values from this software. The software can be
applied to problems in genomics, brain imaging, astrophysics,
and data mining.
