Bio: Multiple Hypothesis Testing and Simultaneous Inference
The need to control for multiple testing is familiar to bioinformaticians and statisticians working with data from high-output platforms, and issues involving multiple testing and false positive control are likely to remain important for years to come. Related problems are posed by the desire to perform inference on effect sizes for numerous parameters, such as effects of SNPs on disease risk, etc. This working group will consider current work on multiple testing and simultaneous inference, considering complicating situations posed by new technologies or special sampling situations. Examples may include family-wise error control, false discovery control, inference from outcome-dependent sampling, corrections for winner's curse effects, resampling methods, and likely many others.

Title: A Procedure To Detect General Association Based On Concentration Of
Ranks
Abstract: In modern high-throughput applications, it is often important to identify
pairwise associations between variables, and it is desirable to use
methods that are powerful and sensitive to different types of
associations. We describe a new non-parametric association test for

Dear All,
Our speaker Dr. Sihai Zhao will give a talk via WebEx. So the audiences do not need to go to Samsi #219 today. Please install samsi webex in your laptop.
Dr. Fred Wright will be the host for the last meeting of 2014.
Hope everyone has a good holiday and happy new year!
