Correcting False Discovery Rates

Description

There are many estimators of false discovery rate. In this package we compute the Nonlocal False Discovery Rate (NFDR) and the estimators of local false discovery rate: Corrected False discovery Rate (CFDR), Re-ranked False Discovery rate (RFDR) and the blended estimator.

The DESCRIPTION file:

Package: CorrectedFDR
Type: Package
Version: 1.1
Date: 2021-10-06
License: GPL-3
Depends: R(>= 2.14.2)
Suggests: LFDR.MLE, LFDREmpiricalBayes, ProData

Two functions in CorrectedFDR package to compute the LFDR estimators. The function EstimatorsFDR computes the nonlocal false discovery rate (NFDR), the CFDR and the RFDR. The function BlendedLFDR uses a Benchmark of FDR, and other estimators of LFDR in order to get an estimate of LFDR.
