Abstract

The process of screening for differentially expressed genes using microarray samples can usually be reduced to a large set of statistical hypothesis tests. In this situation, statistical issues arise which are not encountered in a single hypothesis test, related to the need to identify the specific hypotheses to be rejected, and to report an associated error. As in any complex testing problem, it is rarely the case that a single method is always to be preferred, leaving the analysts with the problem of selecting the most appropriate method for the particular task at hand. In this chapter, an introduction to current multiple testing methodology was presented, with the objective of clarifying the methodological issues involved, and hopefully providing the reader with some basis with which to compare and select methods.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 08 February 2013.
All research outputs
#15,263,666
of 22,696,971 outputs
Outputs from Methods in molecular biology
#5,294
of 13,046 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#181,492
of 280,813 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Methods in molecular biology
#176
of 342 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,696,971 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 22nd percentile – i.e., 22% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 13,046 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.3. This one is in the 45th percentile – i.e., 45% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 280,813 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 25th percentile – i.e., 25% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 342 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 37th percentile – i.e., 37% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
