2 Test Hypothesis in in Micoaay Studies Micoaay studies aim to discove enes in bioloical samples that ae diffeentially expessed unde diffeent expeimental conditions aim at havin hih pobability of declain enes to be sinificantly expessed if they ae tuly expessed (hih powe ~ low type II eo isk), while keepin the pobability of makin false declaations of expession acceptably low (contollin type I eo isk) Lee & Whitmoe (22) Statistics in Medicine 21, expession ene

3 Multiple Testin Micoaay studies typically involve the simultaneous study of thousands of enes, the pobability of poducin incoect test conclusions (false positives and false neatives) must be contolled fo the whole ene set. fo each ene thee ae two possible situations - the ene is not diffeentially expessed, e.. hypothesis H is tue - the ene is diffeentially expessed at the level descibed by the altenative hypothesis H A test declaation (decision) tue hypothesis unexpessed (H ) expessed (H A ) - the ene is diffeentially expessed (H ejected) - the ene is unexpessed (H not ejected) unexpessed (H not ejected) tue neative false neative (type II eo β) test declaation expessed (H ejected) false positive (type I eo α) tue positive Lee & Whitmoe (22) Statistics in Medicine 21,

Pemutation aloithm fo non-adjusted p-values Fo the b-th pemutation, b = 1,...,B 1. Pemute the n columns of the data matix X. 2. Compute test statistics t 1,b,..., t,b fo each hypothesis. The pemutation distibution of the test statistic T fo hypothesis H, =1,...,, is iven by the empiical distibution of t,1,..., t,b. Fo two-sided altenative hypotheses, the pemutation p-value fo hypothesis H is p * = B 1 I( t, b t j ) B b= 1 whee I(.) is the indicato function, equalin 1 if the condition in paenthesis is tue, and othewise.

17 Contol of of the False Discovey Rate (FDR) While in some cases FWER contol is needed, the multiplicity poblem in micoaay data does not equie a potection aainst aainst even a sinle type I eo, so that the seve loss of powe involved in such potection is not justified. Instead, it may be moe appopiate to emphasize the popotion of eos amon the identified diffeentially expessed enes. The expectation of this popotion is the False Discovey Rate (FDR). FDR = E( Q), Q = V / R : R : R > = R = numbe of ejected hypothesis V = numbe of type I eos (false positives) Reine, Yekutieli & Benjamini (23) Bioinfomatics 19,

Benjamini & Yekutieli (21) - pocedue 1 contols the FDR unde cetain dependency stuctues (positive eession dependency) - step-up pocedue fo moe eneal cases (eplace q by q / 1/ i ) i 1 * = max adjusted p - { } : p q /( 1/ i), eject H fo i = 1 ~ { } value p = min min( p 1/ i, 1) k =, l, k k i = 1 = = 1, l, *, - this modification may be to consevative fo the micoaay poblem Reine, Yekutieli & Benjamini (23) Bioinfomatics 19,

Adaptive pocedues (Benjamini & Hochbe, 2) - ty to estimate and use q*=q / instead of q in pocedue 1 to ain moe powe - Stoey (21) suests a simila vesion to estimate, which ae implemented in SAM (Stoey & Tibshiani, 23) - adaptive methods offe bette pefomance only by utilizin the diffeence between / and 1, if the diffeence is small, i.e. when the potential popotion of diffeentially expessed enes is small, they offe little advantae in powe while thei popeties ae not well established. 4.

Adjusted p-values povide flexible summaies of the esults fom a multiple testin pocedue and allow fo a compaison of diffeent methods. Substantial ain in powe can be obtained by takin into account the joint distibution of the test statistics (e.. Westfall & Youn, 1993; Reine, Yekutieli & Benjamini 23).
