Background: Copy number aberrations (CNAs) are an important molecular signature in cancer initiation, development, and progression. However, these aberrations span a wide range of...
Background: Evaluating the importance of the different sources of variations is essential in microarray data experiments. Complex experimental designs generally include various fa...
Background: When conducting multiple hypothesis tests, it is important to control the number of false positives, or the False Discovery Rate (FDR). However, there is a tradeoff be...
