"By this time, such significance tests had become the mainstay of statistical data analysis in the biological and social sciences - a status that they still retain. However, it was apparent from the outset that there are conceptual problems associated with such tests. Firstly, the test does not address precisely the question that the researcher most wants to answer. The researcher is not primarily interested in the probability of their data set - in a sense its probability is irrelevant, as it is an event that has actually happened. What they really want to know is the probability of the hypothesis that the experiment was designed to test. This is the problem of 'inverse' or 'Bayesian' probability, the probability of things that are not - and cannot be - observed. Secondly, although the probability that a single experiment will give a significant result by coincidence is low, if more tests are conducted, the probability that at least one of them will do so increases"--

Hardback. Etat : New. The False Discovery Rate An essential tool for statisticians and data scientists seeking to interpret the vast troves of data that increasingly power our world First developed in the 1990s, the False Discovery Rate (FDR) is a way of describing the rate at which null hypothesis testing produces errors. It has since become an essential tool for interpreting large datasets. In recent years, as datasets have become ever larger, and as the importance of 'big data' to scientific research has grown, the significance of the FDR has grown correspondingly. The False Discovery Rate provides an analysis of the FDR's value as a tool, including why it should generally be preferred to the Bonferroni correction and other methods by which multiplicity can be accounted for. It offers a systematic overview of the FDR, its core claims, and its applications. Readers of The False Discovery Rate will also find: Case studies throughout, rooted in real and simulated data setsDetailed discussion of topics including representation of the FDR on a Q-Q plot, consequences of non-monotonicity, and many moreWide-ranging analysis suited for a broad readership The False Discovery Rate is ideal for Statistics and Data Science courses, and short courses associated with conferences. It is also useful as supplementary reading in courses in other disciplines that require the statistical interpretation of 'big data'. The book will also be of great value to statisticians and researchers looking to learn more about the FDR. STATISTICS IN PRACTICE A series of practical books outlining the use of statistical techniques in a wide range of applications areas: HUMAN AND BIOLOGICAL SCIENCES EARTH AND ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCES INDUSTRY, COMMERCE AND FINANCE.
