Overview

About

Implementations of the multiple testing procedures for discrete tests described in the paper Döhler, Durand and Roquain (2018) "New FDR bounds for discrete and heterogeneous tests" doi:10.1214/18-EJS1441. The main procedures of the paper (HSU and HSD), their adaptive counterparts (AHSU and AHSD), and the HBR variant are available and are coded to take as input the results of a test procedure from package 'DiscreteTests', or a set of observed p-values and their discrete support under their nulls. A shortcut function to obtain such p-values and supports is also provided, along with a wrapper allowing to apply discrete procedures directly to data.

Changes in 2.1.1
  • Replaced deprecated functions used by fast.Discrete() and in the vignettes.
