Comparing multiple testing procedures and error rates under weighted classification

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, Stephan Morgenthaler, Djalel Eddine Meskaldji

When many hypotheses are tested simultaneously, the control of the number of false rejections is often the principal consideration. In practice, this is insatisfacory since we also have to keep in mind the power of detecting true effects. At the moment, th ...

Stability of the Classifications of Returns to Scale in Data Envelopment Analysis: A Case Study of the Set of Public Postal Operators

Matthias Finger

A significant theme in data envelopment analysis (DEA) is the stability of returns to scale (RTS) classification of specific decision making unit (DMU) which is under observed production possibility set. In this study the observed DMUs are public postal op ...

Scaled False Discovery Proportion and Related Error Metrics

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Stephan Morgenthaler, Djalel Eddine Meskaldji

In multiple testing, a variety of control metrics of false positives have been introduced such as the Per Family Error Rate (PFER), Family-Wise Error Rate (FWER), the False Discovery Rate (FDR), the False Exceedence Rate (FER). In this talk, we present a c ...

Optimality in multiple comparison procedures

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Stephan Morgenthaler, Djalel Eddine Meskaldji

When many (m) null hypotheses are tested with a single dataset, the control of the number of false rejections is often the principal consideration. Two popular controlling rates are the probability of making at least one false discovery (FWER) and the expe ...
